My boat leans to strbrd side when evenly weighted, full ballast. Tanks on both sides seem to be full. Anybody else find this?

Cedarcreek - you set yourself up good on that one, but I am going to resist the temptation to spike it!
As to the message, check tanks themselves (fill until overflow) as gauges aren't always accurate and factor in all weight in the boat.

Prop torque.
1. Driver needs to lose weight
2. Keep ~100-150lb lead on the port side to offset.2019 G23 450

Cedars post was pretty funny.
It's due to the prop torque. Even when weighted completely even while floating the boat will want to lean starboard. Grab some pop products or lead wake bags to throw on passenger side. My 08 does the same thing. I always fill so boat is leaning ever so slightly to passenger (port side)side while sitting still. The more aggressive prop you run the more weight you need to balance. Your situation is completely normal.Last edited by swatguy; 07-24-2015, 09:11 AM.

Checked tanks, they are completely full. I run them till overflow. Its even leaning when its just floating with nobody in the boat?? I guess its normal as I'm reading here. The weird part is that I don't think its always done it?? I could be mistaken and its not a huge lean, just seems odd..
