Knock the fronts of the battery trays out so the batteries can be moved forward. stick some velcro furher forward to hold the batteries secure and then experiment with the best position for the batteries to sit.

Strange that you can using 6S lipo with stock ESC,
I'm using stock ESC with BJ26 stock motor and dead(burt).

Carefully(!) adjust the trimtabs slightly downward.
My boat can run excellent one day in smooth water and hop all over the place the next day if the water is rough, then the tabs need adjusting to run great again.
Adjusting the tabs down will cost you some speed because the boat will run with more hull in the water (wetter).

I think the adjustable trimtabs from Offshore are a must for this boat.
They make boating life a lot easier.
