			Chesapeake, I believe that flat spot IS called a pad...course, that was there w/Old Rude and there was some of this spray, but not nearly what it is w/this new motor...like you, I'll have to turn over the wheel to some one and take a look...if it didn't shoot directly into the swim-platform, I may have not even noticed it... 
 
When you asked above, ''keel flatter?", I assume you meant on newer models...mine bein' an old '74 and doin' this, that's probably not the cause...on the other hand, what year is your motor?...
