Overcoming Prop torque

[pelicanpete]

I own a 24 ft open centre console boat with a single Yamaha 225 h.p. 2-stroke outboard. It is not fitted with trim tabs and the problem I am having is that, under power at all speeds, it lists to port. If I have people on board I ask them to sit/stand on the right side which levels things up. But when I'm on my own, the port list is there.

I'll fit trim-tabs as a last resort but does anyone out there have a cheap and simple alternative solution to the problem?

Try this post on Motor Boat Forum. I know it is double posting, but you might get an answer there.
