Griff, I understand that if they are spinning in the same direction this would cause the boat to act this way. If I have a left and right prop on and they spun in the same direction would this not rob me of a lot of speed?

How about posting what boat and driveline as well as anything else you can describe your setup by? If you had "left and right" props on same-rotating drives, you'd be going in very small circles. Leaning would be the least of it.

Sounds like you might have a hook in the hull, or something in the gelcoat/paint to slow the strbd side. Also possible that the RPM's are out of sink.
Stupid question may be , but "props are same pitch"??

. I think what he is trying to tell you is to make sure your props turn in opposite directions.
