In my case, it's almost certainly due to the fact that all the
batteries (3 for the house bank, 1 for the engine) are under the
quarterberth settee - which is a lot of lead aft and starboard.

Unfortunately, the only obvious solutions involve similar amounts of
weight forward and port. When stowing stuff, keep this in mind - but
unless you're stowing a lot of spare batteries (!) you probably end
up learning to live with a slight list to starboard - one of the
charming quirks of our lovely if individualistic vessels.
