It is a bit out of trim, but not sitting high. The grassweeds line usually starts an inch or so below the waterline of a largely stationary boat. This one angles down and disappears below the waterline about 1/3 the length of the boat.

Removing the torpedos without re-trimming the boat could do this, but then, so could a great many repair evolutions. Hard to say what the cause may be.
