Default Twin Motor Steering Problems

Preface your question with "Political OT" and you will get many responses.

I just bought a 22ft Twin Vee with twin 115's and hydraulic steering.
At cruising speed it seems to steer hard to port. When I increase to
full throtle it seems to want to steer to one side on it's own (I don't
recall which side). Sometimes it feels as if the motors are fighting
themselves. I don't believe there is a mechanical problem but maybe a
technique problem. Am I trimming wrong or are my motors running
differently at high rpm, maybe it's the motors are improperly aligned?
Could it be the way the twin hull reacts to the current. I got nailed
going through a pass this weekend with a strong side current and
whirlpools. Any old salts out there with some advice?

Thanks Jesse
