 My boat had a similar issue, had to use a raised drawbar, lifted the front of the boat and the problem is solved. Also lifted the front of the boat on the trailer with the rollers. The breather is at the front of the fuel tank in my case, so there used to be a lot of trapped air in the tank until I lifted the front of the boat.
