Author Topic:   2007 240 OUTRAGE: Static List To PORT

SantaMonicaWhaler posted 05-24-2011 05:32 PM ET (US)
I have a 2007 240 Outrage with twin 150-HP Verado engines. While docked (and presumably while not docked) the boat lists somewhat to the port side. The botton paint, however, was evenly done on both sides, with the result being that the paint is about one to two inches above the water line on the starboard side, but right at the waterline on the port side. Looking throught [some] diagrams, there does not appear to be any tank on one side or the other (fresh water or waste), and both batteries are immediately below the center console. The gas tank is about 3/4-FULL. I haven't owned the boat long enough to compare to prior years and with empty full tank.
[Do readers have] any thoughts on a potential problem that may be lurking underneath, or should I simply ignore the [list]? Thanks in advance,
Mark

I don't own a 240 Outrage, however my 1990 Revenge W/T with twin F100 Yamaha's lists to starboard about one inch. I've looked at other Revenges of similar vintage and they do the same.
I have both my batteries on the port side. Not sure what about the build process has caused this, but I love the boat and how she handles.
Your 240 lists quite a bit more. Se what other 240 owners have to say.

Any other 240 Outrage owners with a similar issue or thoughts on what is causing the problem?
