I have a problem with the waterline on my 2001 331. When the water tank is full the bow sinks and the waterline creeps up into the bootsripe. In fact, the water tank must be kept nearly empty to keep the waterline just below the top of the antifouling paint. I identified this problem to Beneteau in August 2001 but they still have no clue as to what is causing this to happen. My boat is loaded normally and has no extra equipment near the bow. Beneteau wants to place approx 300lbs of lead near the transom to balance the boat. My regional sales rep tells me that this is only a problem for a very few number of boats. Please let me know if you also have this problem and if you have contacted Beneteau for assistance.
