Oh, yes.. that is exactly how is is supposed to ride. The front sponsons are there for the ride after the launch. Bottom 1/2 of the prop in the water.

BTW... if you look at the back of the boat you see a black square behind the engine. That is the parachute. Look directly in line below that and you see a black piece with a shaft going forward. That is the strut.
SO, you can see it carries the boat weight plus a ton of side load. (from bottom half of prop)
