My boat leans to the left in the mid throttle ranges. My wife was with me one time and asked why it was leaning to her side. I did not have the wisdom not to make a joke about her eating habbits even though I out weigh her by 80 lbs or so. Needless to say that trip did not go well.

I had the same problem once, but didn't dare say a word to my passenger. By the way, I stand 5'10".  Amazingly, I was still able to GPS 79.9mph that day. 
Some folks mouths, flat out runs their minds.

I have the same problem. I believe it to be as described by steve@scp above. I know my prop is dinged up.
It leans to the port side when above 1/2 throttle.
Can you confirm that this is likely an issue with the prop tips being bent back at variouse degrees?
Also and advice on replacing a prop? I have the stock 19 pitch 13 3/4" 3 blade aluminum prop on the boat now.
Shall I go stainless? 4 or 5 blades maybe? stay with a 3 blade. the sst prop will last alot longer than an alum. prop, but does cost ALOT more to purchase.
