I was going off of current motors, as I was unsure of what model you had, so I do stand corrected...
With that being the case, you are not too far off then, which is a good thing...so...Steve Worrall's suggestion of adding the wedges might help with the solution.
I'm thinking for trim purposes also that maybe too much weight up front could be part of the issue as when you trim up, the motor cannot keep it there due to the weight.
I do think finding a prop that has some good tip-cupping would be very beneficial as well, but plan to go down in pitch about 2 inches. The tip cupping will reduce rpms but help lift the bow and keep it there so long as you keep your rpms up. This will most likely allow your rpms to be right around 5400 or so (given you go steel), but hopefully give the bow some more lift.
Steve
