I have a 1986 searay 268 weekender. I spent the winter replacing the transom,stringers,bulkheads and foam. Now If i give it full throttle the boats starts to lean very hard to the portside. Once up on plane the boat is still leaning extremely hard to port. If i use the trim tabs on that side to correct the lean. Then if i try to make a gentle turn to starboard the boat unsafely leans to starboard right away. The kicker is it never did this before the rebuild and occ when coming up on plane it doesn't lean at all. I moved some stuff around after the rebuild. Here is where everything was prior to the rebuild. The fresh water tank was located on the port side about 18 inches from the transom outer shelf next to the outside of the hull. 2 house batteries were located on the port side next to the engine. On the starboard side i had the hot water heater on the outer shelf next to the outside of the hull. 1 starter battery next to the engine. Here is where the stuff is now. Freshwater tank on the port side outer shelf next to outside of hull and about 48 inches from the transom. The hot water tank is also located on the port side on the outer shelf about 7 inches from the transom. On the star board side i have 2 house batteries located on the out shelf about 48 inches from the transom. 1 starter battery on the outer shelf about 4 inches from the transom. I also have the factory swim platform removed. That swim platform easily weighs around 100 pounds if not more. And i used the outer hull for the transom cut out.
