    Blackjack listing to the right

    I've had the Blackjack 26 for about 3 months now ( just bought Miss Geico) and I've noticed that the boat would always list towards the right. I just thought the batteries were off balance, but I've noticed a slight bend in the rudder towards the left......would this cause my issues?

    Is this normal??? If it's not, can I add some heat to it and clamp in place to true it up again or is this a warranty issue??

    Do you tape your hatch, is it all the time or towards the end of a run, mine used to get water and lean that way.

      I do get some water in the hull...I guess that could be the issue as well. I guess what I'm trying to figure out is if the rudder is causing any of tihs???

            Well, I got it trued up again..took it apart and introduced it to the heat gun and clamped it for half an hour...Still don't know if she will perform any better though. I'll see later....
