[QUOTE="dearl, post: 428638, member: 1760"] Get rid of 2 of those group 31's and move the other 2 under the rear bench In the center. Add some 1.5 cubic ft. float pods on it, you'll see a huge difference. You've got a lot of weight in that little boat, and all of its in the back, I'm surprised you haven't seen some welds breaking or structural problems yet. By doing this you'll notice no difference in the bow draft, if anything you may gain some. No bigger than the generator is I would ditch the elevated platform and sit it In the floor, then move it around while I was on the front deck, All that weight and leverage is going to cause you problems down the road.
