My 20 lists to port?
 
While under power my boat begins to list to port, the more power, the greater the problem and my trim tabs do not allevaite it. Anyone else experience this....? Any ideas, other than I am doing something seriously wrong.

What do you have for power? If you have an I/O check your motor mounts.

WHICH WAY IS YOUR PROP TURNING? IS IT A RIGHT OR LEFT HANDER? IF IT IS A LEFT HANDER THAT COULD CAUSE YOU BOAT TO LIST TO THE PORT A LITTLE.

check the zinc adjustment right above the prop.The one used to counteract the torque of the motor to keep you in a straight line. not sure if you were talking about this..??

My 23 lists to starboard at rest, and a bit forward too, a bit annoying as water tends to collect in the starboard corner near the fish hold... but underway, I have tabs and trim it out.

Sorry I can't offer any meaningful insight.

Check underneath her & make sure its not cupping at stearn(Hull)?All the other post before are right on the prob. also ?????? If the trim tabs aren't correcting sounds like engine torq.?
