I have a 2006 centurion elite v-drive that lists to the right at all speeds. any suggestions. I heard that "bottom tuning" may help. In which direction should the fins be bent?

do you mean it turns right? Sorry if it is a dumb question

If you mean that the boat literally leans to the right the smart aleck remark would be, "Maybe the driver needs a diet."

On a serious note, maybe you have a full cooler plus a battery on the starboard side with no battery on the port side?

If you mean the boat turns to the right when you think it should be going straight then "bottom tuning" could be your answer.

I've heard of that before on that boat. Something about the mold being warped, the tracking fins need to be straightened. I'd talk to your dealer if you have one, they should be familiar with it.

casey you are aware all boats will turn to the right or left naturally. the props are off set.

Coop has trouble letting go...

Alan, not sure what you mean. With PP on and the steering wheel set straight ahead, I don't even have to be in the drivers seat of my Sanger.
