Seat Adjustment

I recently changed saddles (to a Terry Tri Fly Gel). I find that I tend to move forward off the sweet spot of the saddle. One possibility of course is that the saddle is not suited for my riding position. I ride on the hoods, but my handlebars are 3+ inches below the saddle. I've got long arms to this is not as extreme as it sounds. Another possibility may relate to my not being able to get the saddle level. I've got a carbon fiber seat post with a single bolt clamping system and I gather from another thread that folks have experienced similar problems with certain saddles on these types of seat posts. I'm thinking I should change the seat post so I can get the saddle level before giving up on it. Any thoughts?
