The different lengths and rise on the 2 lines is causing the problem. The fuel pump is sucking from the source of least resistance. You could lengthen the short line to the same length as the long one, and fasten the loop up as high as the highest point the other line runs.

Partially closing the valve on the tank with the short run would also cure it.

Also, make sure both tank vents are open, or if the vents are in the caps that they are working properly.

I had that problem on my 28' Silverton. Listing is a problem. It is the nature of the beast. It will always pull from the closest tank first. How I solved it was to go out on one tank and back on the other. This always kept the tanks around even. Of course you need shut off valves on each tank to do this.

My V was doing the same, I made the hose the same, vents the same and still nothing!
I did the same mentioned with a shut off on each tank, when one was getting empty I was able to catch it and turn the switch and was always good!
When I converted from I/O I added another 25 gal tank in the motor well, and being I never used more then 25 gal gas just left that filled all the time and the saddle bags empty, boat always level after that
