How is the weight distributed in the boat? That would be the first thing I would look at.

Tony, get off that diet and eat some meat and tatters. Put some meat on those bones it will settle out. The guys are right, its a weight distribution thing. Skeeter

You may have to put a small tab on that side to even it out it is not that uncommon of a problem. If your transom has a lip on it sticking out the bottom you can bend it down on that side and that will help. The tab is probably 1/2 inch long

What are these tabs your talking about? Do you have a web site? I have the problem as well on my Skeeter. Nels

Raising the engine can sometimes help.
