Listing to port

[Scott Whidden]

My 96 is listing to port. Previuosly i though it might be my loading,, However I have removed the heavier objects. When i recently put her back in the water, she seems to have a more pronouced list. There is no indication of leaking in the cabin area. The bilge does sound like it is working, but i have yet to see it pump water. Looking for advice on reasons and rectifying a list. Any suggestions or similar experiences. Scott Whidden

list

There was a number of responses a few weeks back on the same thing.Some suggestions I remember were: were is your motor located, batteries (which are very heavy) holding tank, gas tank, water tank. You can add lead weight, one person suggested kitty litter under the opposite sides bunk or any seat access that puts in near the bottom. There should be a good reason for your list other than taking on water. That's not usually the problem, but keep a check on your bilge. Just take an overall assesment where your weight is distributed and add accordingly.good luck
