sounds like you need tabs.

I had a 89 Regal Velocity with a 454 mag and bravo I drive. Never had a porpoise problem. I am wondering if it a hull problem.

Put a straight edge on the last 4ft of the boat. Check to see if a hook has developed in the hull.It can happen easily if the transom is not supported correctly by the trailer.

My 22 has a very similar bottom. Depending on what prop I have on the boat, it will porpose at cruise speed if trimmed high. But its like its on rails at wot......... Maybe try changing props!!??
