If the main shape of the tank is fore and aft the vent really should be coming from the forward end of the tank now. Hopefully it is.
check to see if the vent hose is hanging low in the bilge causing a "slug" of fuel. If so run it as to not sag. Can the vent be moved higher? If this happens on the trailer is it going to happen out at sea when the boat is trimmed up?
