95 Ranger Tilting on Plane

I'm going to guess one of three things has happened.

1) Weight has shifted in the boat somewhere. Did you move/add and anchor or battery somewhere?

2) Your hydrofoil is weak on one side and bending causing a deflection in the waterflow over it.

3) The little tab on the back underside of the anti cavitation plate has either gotten out of it's adjustment or it's broken causing the motor/prop torque to try and turn the boat causing you to put some wheel into it causing a tilting of the boat while on plane.

Look at the tab on the anti cavitation plate first, if that's in good shape try moving weight around the boat to see if that fixes anything.

is there anything hanging from the bottom of the boat? like a ripped keelguard. That will cause drag. Does a little bit of trim fix it? What kind of boat and motor. My 02 175vs ranger with a 130hp does it when the motor is as far down as it will go. Just a touch of trim brings it level though. I to have a foil as well. i have learned to live with mine. As soon as the nose starts to break over i start trimming and i never notice it. or i just dont tuck the motor all the way down before taking off.
