"my hurricane deckboat 228r w/a150xr6 merc wont lift bow,ever. Nice for pulling skiers but would like more top end& better fuel economy. Already put a hydrofoil on no difference. I usually have 5 people but somtimes a full load of 12. somebody told me i need a setback/jackplate. any help?? thanks."
 
That hydrofoil is hurting you

That hydrofoil is hurting you more than helping you--it's purpose is to lower the bow. Can't you just tilt the lower unit out further?
