Default Does Your Boat Lean to the Right?
When your boat sits at the dock is the starboard side lower in the water than the port looking at it from the stern?

It did until I put both batteries on the port side, in the engine compt., between the port stringer and the hull as far back as I could get them.
It makes removal of the rear batt. a bear, but it can be done.
This inst. is on a side-by-side 38 w/blower motors running #5 SSM drives.

Mine seems to sit straight, but now I will have to take a closer look at it this weekend. You got me wondering. My batteries are one on each side.

Only when the cooler is empty. Mine has a slight lean to the right.

Now that I look at the question carefully...

The way your boat leans???

I would guess it depends which hand you use to rub one out!
