Listing/trim quirk
 
Hi All,

I have a 17' Ensign (campion?) bowrider with VP i/o.
1989 AQ151 with SP leg.

Bought it jjust over a month ago. It has a slight list to starboard,
visible, not quite an inch difference at waterline side to side.

When trimmed near 0 it is a bit hard steering to starboard and leans more
than same turn to port....
Also if trimmed up a bit it is easier to make that starboard turn...

My question, at first I thought the list was an offcenter gas tank or other
heavy component. Now I wonder if it is the sterndrive installed slightly
crooked. Prev owner did have leg rebuilt a couple years ago...

May have to have a good marine mech seatrial it.
Any suggestions thx
Ron
