05 X listing to port side
Had my 05 X for about 3 weeks now and noticed
when boats is just sitting there it seems to list
slightly to the port side. I have an even amount
of fuel in the tanks & nothing in the water
tank. At first I thought it was just me,but I
took a bucket of water to the cockpit floor
and more of it ran to the port floor drain.
Has anyone raun into this before?
By the way,it seems to track straight
and handle fine. I've had it to 78 mph on
a hot day,so everything else seems normal.

I tried adding fuel to my starboard tank only. It didnt seem
to make a difference. Its not a major lean,pretty slight,but
there. Its buggin me.

No a/c,but shore power. Maybe your right though. I just
remembered that I have my anchor,and all equipment under
the port side of my rear seat.
Jason is good,but so damn busy. I think it is just
cavitation. As I got used to the different way this boat
gets on plane I have minimized it. The X dim is really
high with 32 bravos for props.

That makes better sense,i wasn't aware of the bigger boats like yours using 1.65 gears and ive ran same prop with 1.50's in high 80's/low 90's,so it seemed off,Smitty
