396 Pounding at the aft end while moored


Hello All,
I have a 2004 396 (gas engines in case it matters). When I am anchored or moored in a way where waves or wakes come toward the aft end of the boat, they get trapped underneath the swim step and pound badly. It shakes the whole boat, and can make sleeping or even just sitting in a busy anchorage very uncomfortable. I have already gotten confirmation that this is not just on my boat. Has anyone found a solution to the problem? I would consider some sort of attached baffle or diverter, or even a hull modification if I knew it would solve the problem. I wonder if later models had any changes to the structure.

Thanks,
Thatch in Seattle
