put a straight edge on the last 6 or 8 feet of the bottom of the boat and check for any hooks in the hull if you have a hook it will act like a trim tab being down and make the boat lean to one side and it will get worse the faster you go

I guess I havent tried to trim it out more, I'll give it a try this weekend and see how it goes... Should I be looking for some trim tabs?

Like said try a little more trim or give another wheel a try. Possibly a 4 blade bravo. My 202 stinger seemed to run the best with a bravo prop vs the others i tried.

I am going to do all of above... I have a ballistic lined up to try and Ill also try trimming it some more. I also will try the straight edge thing tonight when I get home. But I boat all over pretty much... Union, Cass, Oakland lake... I'm all over the place.
I saw another powerplay on walled lake earlier this year with an open bow which Ive never seen before and it sounded like it had a BB in it and last year I saw another XLT on Woodland lake in Brighton. Kinda surprised how many there are in this area.

No hooks or anything on the hull... straight as an arrow.
