Starboard list


Guest

Question

Hi guys-
First off, thanks to those who posted advice on getting my mercury 50 hp motor ready to run after 2+ years in storage. It runs GREAT!
That leads to my next problem. The motor is attached to a 16' Bluefin side console, and it pushes it pretty well. However, when the boat is on plane, there is a pretty good list to the starboard (right) side. At first I thought my transom mounted transducer was the problem, but the list remained after i removed it. I sit on the right side (obviously), and go a good 250 lbs., but when I stand and shift to the other side, it doesn't change. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Right now the boat has only a 6.6 gal. gas tank, 2 batteries (one on each side in the back of the boat), and me, so I don't think it's weight. I will go and check the hull, however. Thanks, ST!
