It depends. Those plugs might help, if your engine is over revving. The purpose of the vents is to allow the prop to turn faster, thus, supposedly getting the boat up on plane faster.

What is the engine turning for rpms at full throttle when you try to get up on plane. Less pitch, a four blade might help, but it will cost you top end speed. If possible, move some of the weight in the aft compartments forward. That will help get the nose down, but that too will cost you top end speed.

You can also get one of those whale tail thingies, which will provide lift for the stern without costing much at the top end.

It's possible that when you are fully loaded with fuel, live wells and gear, that 200 hp engine is just not adequate for what you are asking of it.
