Well, two things:
1. This doesn't sound like a hook problem. A hook is more likely to cause poor handling than poor power. Can you be more specific about your performance concerns? What are the maximum speed and RPM's you can get the boat up to? Do you know if the boat has the stock prop on it, and what prop is it? There are lots of stories of people buying a used boat, being disappointed in its performance, and discovering that a previous owner thought he was a prop expert and put a completely wrong prop on it.
2. Regardless of the above, if your transom is overhanging your bunks by 5", you should investigate replacing your bunks IMO.
