    boat leaning once plained out

    So once I plain out my 2015 Rz2, it starts to list to about 7 degress. Ballasts are empty. Is this normal with full inboards? Feels strange. I (about 210) was the only one in the boat.

    Sounds like you have taps too far down (1 to 3).
    Oh Yeah!

      My RZR Leans just sitting in the water empty.

        One of my few complaints about my RZ2 is that it is very sensitive to leaning to one side or the other while under way based on weight distribution in the boat or even crosswinds (especially with the bimini and board racks up). Doesn’t feel unstable, just awkward. I usually have one of the kids shift position to even if out if it is too pronounced.

          My 2018 RZX3 is very weight sensitive. I am surprised I need to shift people or throw some ballast in it when I run. I usually surf with a crew of three of four. Had two extra people the other day and the wave jumped n=in height it was impressive.

            My 15 RZ4 is also very weight sensitive. Just fill the ballast a bit to even it out. You could always add some batteries like I did [emoji23]

              My 18 R21 seems to list to the right when evenly weighted and cruising above 20 MPH
              Was also wondering if this was normal for other R21/Z1's???

                Noticed the list yesterday while cruising in breezy conditions going perpendicular to wind with no ballast and Bimini up.

                Shifted one of the surf spuds (kiddos) to leeward side and all flattened out.

                  My 2015 RZR lists toward the driver's side on plane when only I am in the boat. Once i get another body on the other side; it levels out. These boats seem WAY more finicky when it comes to weighting than my Mastercraft was. I find that my best slalom wake with the RZR is TAPS 2, but the boat porpoises badly if more than 3 people behind the windshield and no one up front. Once the weight is even distributed in front of and behind the windshield-all is well.
