Hope this doesn't seem like a silly suggestion, but have you checked your speaker connections? Perhaps you mixed up the front and rear cables at the back of your PC if you have a 5.1 system or similar. Likewise, it's possible to connect them wrongly if each speaker plugs into a subwoofer separately.
Also, how about your sound card drivers or Windows' Control Panel? Some sound cards I've had in the past had a "reverse stereo" option which could cause this effect.
If you're looking around on the bridge and find the engines are in your right ear when you're looking out to the port side (and vice versa), this might explain it. However, if you move the free cam around and find the engine sound is louder at the bow, then it seems something is very wrong with your game files!
