Like I said with at least two in the boat (one up front) the boat feels
balanced; handles beautifully and flies (30 mph). Its just when on my own
it feels a bit hairy, even when on the plane the front end feels light
(thats why I was thinking hydrofoils, aren't they supposed to keep the front
end down ??), I don't know what speed it would achieve, I haven't been that
brave (stupid) yet.

Keep as much weight forward as possible such as the fuel tank and
anchor. Heavy duty velcro can be useful for keeping the tank where
you want it. Also, keep the motor trimmed all the way down. If all
else fails keep a 5 gallon jerry jug of water up forward in addition
to everything else.
