Listing (porting) problem
 
Hello dear all. I am the new owner of a davante 215. I having listing problems on my left side when the boat is on cruise. When still no problems. The engine is a merc 260 with a bravo 1.

Recently i tried removing the wale tale and i installed the smart tabs to see if my problem will be solved. But no. Still the same issue. I do not have weight balance problems.

A friend suggested that it might be due to the impeller suction on the right side. ( Its not on bravo its on the boat sticking out a little bit) do you have any ideas ? Thxxx

Bravo 1 is a single propeller the torque of the motor is twisting you to Port. Try moving your port smart tab down one click.

Keep experimenting until you achieve the results you desire. Every boat is different. I have a Z280 with hydraulic trim tabs and am constantly playing with the trim
