Default 272 running attitude

Just curious on others boats my 272 lists to the starboard a bit running at slower speeds. If I run about 4 on the starboard side plane it evens up 3.5 being even with the running surface. At higher speeds the list isnt an issue. Also it take very little trim like 1.5 until I really start moving then its up to 7 on drive trim. I dont think the list is a weight issue boat runs 65 with full fuel 4 adults and what I would call dinged up 25 mirages that need reconditioning. My 206 never listed even with people on one side only.

I don't recall having any issue with mine from that stand point as well.

Thanks for the responses. I was out this weekend and it seems quite minor, just shifting some stuff around basically cured it. Like I said it really only did it at slower planing speeds. Sitting in still water I noticed the starboard side of the swim platform was just tad lower in the water so I may move the startboard battery over to the port side or something.

Interesting, mine are both located on the port side. I just assumed that was the stock location.
