Dunk – I just traded in a 2007 Classic with a 200 HPDI. Had hydraulic plate and ran a 26 Fury. I consistently ran 72-74 loaded and spent many hours in the seat. My boat would walk in similar manner if my plate was slightly below the optimal level. I could bump my plate up to the right spot, steering would get tighter and walk would stop. Be careful with setup but consider raising (incrementally of course). Good luck and hope this helps.
