How can I fix my Triumph 210CC that lists to Port while under power?

I have a 2002 Model Triumph 210CC V-Hull that is powered with a Yamaha 150 2-Stroke. Under power it lists to Port. I don't have any wieght on either side of the boat, most everything is in the center line of the boat. Recently I installed Smart Tabs and it has helped somewhat. Any suggestions?

I have a 2003 triumph 210 CC with the same engine and it was listing to the port also. I adjusted the trim tab anode located directly above the prop and this helped a lot. The anode was lined up with the arrow exactly on center and I turned it a few degrees clockwise (right) to the first arrow next to center. This definitely helped. My understanding is that this will help offset right-handed prop torque which can cause listing to the port.

Most will list to one side under power.
The torque of the engine turning the blades, will push to one side.
Some craft have prop shafts off set to compensate.
