Hey guys, so I finally got the motor running good! Had a cel replaced all fuel lines filters and pickup tube/anti siphon valve. Didn’t fix it. Ended up putting 6 rebuilt carbs in and it runs great now. Only thing I noticed was the boat leaning to the left and if I let go of wheel it would turn hard starboard. Boat was empty just myself and a friend. I looked under the cavitation pump. There is no trim tab? Would installing one fix this? It never did this before.

The boat is a seaswirl Striper 2100 dual console it is empty besides myself and a friend. Had a 6 gallon fuel tank just to test the new carburetors. Only gear on boat was toolset life jackets oars lines etc. probably under 500 of gear and fuel. But sits level just leaned towards the portside while getting up on plane. Then pulling hard to the starboard side.

Replacement trim tabs aren't too expensive, but post your model number.

Need a trim tab to correct this.-----If boat still pulls to starboard you move trim tab more to starboard !
