I put a 225 EFI and a 10 inch Jack Plate on it with a full fuel tank 36 gallons empty live wells and three batteries in the back the top cap of the boat is only an inch out of the water making the waves come in and come to the scene as anybody have this problem

No I had to learn to give it a little bump as it was setting down to keep water off the back deck. Also might try the basketball trick in your jp. If it's a manual.

as mentioned...ease off the throttle slowly and "SET" the boat down when coming off plane...

Does your boat have the swim decks on the back?

[castkass]

It came with the swim deck and I have removed it since

If I'm standing on swim deck, it will be barley covered with water.

Do you still have the swim platforms? Do you have a picture of them?

My 193 with 3 batteries and half a tank(25 gallons) 12 inch jack plate with a 250xs the seam was slightly underwater. With my 209te with a 300xs on a 12 inch bobs jack plate and 4 optima d31m batteries, 25 gallons of gas and full livewells my seam is 1.5 inches above the water line.
