Your trim tabs are probably installed right. Lots of guys put them on there to correct the listing.
A lot of guys have a weight distribution problem that causes the list in the first place. Do you have a kicker motor mounted on the one side of the transom? If so, are all your batteries on the same side?
If you have a bunch of weight on the one side, and then add a person or two over there, theres no way you are going to level out unless you move some weight around or use your trim tab to compensate.
One other thing you can do is adjust your torgue tab if you have one. It may help just a little bit.
I would bet the reason the tabs are there is to correct the list and you just need to shift around some weight.
