I noticed this when running the other day (just got this boat)..... it seems to lean to the starboard side, seems to steer fine though. It was a choppy water day, but was just curious. I had two other people with me that were moving around, but I just thought it should stay some what level unless there were a lot of people on one side.

92 Bayliner capri with 5.0 mercrusier Alpha 1 Gen II drive.

Thanks

Re: Boat levelness question.......

The smaller the boat the less tolerable it is to wieght shifts, the bigger the boat the more tolerable it is to wieght shifts.
Also due to the paddlewheel effect, it's the nature of the beast with a single screw boat.
