T 34 C leaning to port
searchSearch
Search

Hi everybody, I am new to the forum and come already with a question: My boat, a 1977 Tartan 34 C is leaning to port by

a few degrees, quite noticeable looking at the boat from further away.

I am somewhat worried since I touched ground last summer which might have caused a leak into the port ballast space.

The amount of water required to explain the observation is quite large: 250 l. I am not sure there is even sufficient space

for that (there is no water in the bilge or cabin). The boat has a Universal diesel M4-30, slightly off the centerline and also two lare batteries on the port side, which might account for the imbalance. Somebody has any information for me?

Thanks

Ferdinand
