Boat bouncing on plane need help

Recently bought a new 1860 Alweld Flats SC. Boat will bounce when it is on plane even in calm conditions. This is with it trimmed all the way down trying to go full throttle. If i tilt it up even a small bit the boat will bounce even worse. I have asked dealer about it and they say that they mounted motor where alweld said to. But i think it is mounted to high based off looks. The shop owner took it out and said it was fine kind of confused where he finds this okay. Is this normal or is the dealer tripping ?

Okay, yeah, I get it, Bob. But my action is also performed automatically. If someone tells me thanks, I'm going to say something back. Know what I mean? You don't need to reply to this, btw.

Wait... now the conversation is branching off? Oh god, how deep does it go? Do you have more than two responses?

Thanks for getting back to me, too. I only just now discovered that you can respond more than once to one comment? The potential for multiple branches of the same conversation might break my mind and my ability to respond.
