I agree with Offshore Addiction. You need to bring that x dimension down. Any will help but it sounds like you need three inches to get to the keel line. If you are moderately powered you probably should be even below that. Does your boat have a notch on the transom just in front of the drive on the center sponson? If so you need to measure from the height of the bottom of the boat not the notch.

I have a ChrisCat drives are about 1/2 in up try some larger diaminter props if you can find some. At 3in up I bet you have a hell of a time getting on plane. Take off slow ease in to the gas to get a little speed then when the prop brakes loose take it up to about 6k for a few seconds then back out of the gas to around 3k or so and see if it bites and takes off it that doesent work stand on the gas untill it takes off.
