34' Lists to Port after haul-out??

My newly purchased 34 pacific bluefin sportfishing boat NOW lists to port after her haul out. It was fine? Now even just sitting still it just leans left? Only thing done was botton paint and reconnecting old trim tabs.

Any ideas?

Maybe you've got a couple of mechanics stuck under the cockpit sole on the port side!

Sorry... Fred's on the right track. Stating the obvious - something other than bottom paint and trim tabs has happened during haul out. Maybe those stuck mechanics moved some things from one side to the other whilst trying to get at the tabs? All I can suggest is that (after checking the tanks) you have a poke about under the soles to see what's moved.
Worst case senario - they punched a hole on the left side of the boat and that side's full of water...
