We were out this past weekend and everything that the C250 is known for happened. Sailing on the anchor, but when we had waves come through the boat would go up and down and the board would clunk to the front.
I was thinking of raising the board half way but I am worried to have the forces exerted on the board raising tackle.

We have to raise our board all the way up to keep it from clunking when a sizeable wave comes by (especially when the waves are across the beam). It hasn't caused any problems to date.
