    1998 201 pro elite leans terrible

    My cousin has a 1998 201 elite.just bought it.He has
    been complaining of a lean so i went with him,thinking
    he was just experiencing the normal torque.NOT..I drove
    it and it sucks.Soon as the front drops on take off it leans
    terrible to the left side,the passenger is noticeably lower
    then driver.once trimmed above 40mph its pretty level,
    if you tuck the motor at all it drops right back down.Makes
    rough water tough,left side just beats.what could be causing
    this?I weigh 40lb more then him and don't matter,35mph
    or less shrarp left turn and the rub rail is on the water from
    the seat on back.225 johnson,trophy prop 4" below.i even
    took EVERYTHING out of the boat and it will do it even with
    no passenger but not as bad.Any ideas?ok boat if conditions
    allow you to mash gas and trim her out,anything less sucks.
