when you say it hops do you mean it porpoises? Have the bottom checked for hook. I know the original 36 my buddy ownd actually had a bar bells glassed into it by eliminator to try to get it to stop. Scrubs huge speed. What gears are you currently running?

Strange.... We are always faster in the wind but if you are porpoising I would maybe talk to a good prop guy. It may have to much stern lift. Let me call some guys and see what they did to there 33s to get them to stop.
