Default tunnel hull walking problem

Since I started working on my Lap Cat II tunnel again, I am having a problem with it walking at full throttle. Its runs great at 3/4 speed and just over. I have made adjustments with weight and trim and cant seem to get it running completely smooth at top end. Anyone have any suggestions that might help with this problem?????????
Thanks
John

How's the prop? Nice and sharp?
I'm thinking that as your speed increases, there is less boat in the water and the prop is taking over causing propwalk. I could be wrong (it wouldn't be the first time) but just a guess right now.

The prop is nice and sharp and balanced so I dont think thats it. I will double check it to make sure but I think there is another problem.
