Hello all, we just bought our first boat a 1994 sea ray 180 i/o with a 4.3 merc. I didnt notice this problem in our test runs but on our first familly outting I noticed that the boat lists badly to port at speeds above 20 mph. I can correct it with stearing but the stearing is sloppy at 20 mph and up. If It helps it does have a whale tail on the lower unit as well as a balistc prop. thanks for any help.

if it doesn't list when stopped, i suggest you put a set of smart tabs on it, and get rid of the whale tail. the whale tail could also be deformed throwing it out of level. someone could have used the starbord side as a step , bending it down, throwing starbord side up when running.
