Well I took it out again and saw that if the wieght is balanced better its not as bad. It only happens at lower speeds, once the boats on plane and going faster than 25mph or so it levels itself out. Thanks for the insight everyone

Mine started doing the same thing since I removed the hydrofoil. Now it lists before coming on plane, then flattens out. It's also very sensitive to weight and where passengers are on the boat. If you want to fix it try installing one of those hydrofoils or doel fins.

Unless your drive/engine is installed at least one inch ABOVE the standard 'X' height (13"), then do NOT install any form of lift device (hydrofoil, wing, doelfin, whatever you want to call it) on your drive!
