First yes I need to know the center of gravity to build from there. How this will help at the ramp, right now my stern is too heavy and water comes over the transom and swamps the boat. If I have my son standing on the bow, we can keep from swamping it. I moved my batteries from what I thought was dented to the bow, but it only helped marginally. I also have a full cooler that comes with us, that is going to turn into a live well. But first I need to figure out the center of gravity so I can balance everything front to back and side to sideLDUBS said:Interesting discussion about the center of gravity. If I understand what is being asked it is at what point along the hull is the weight forward of the point equal to the weight aft of the point. That would be the balance point I think CRScooter is talking about.
I've really never given that much thought until it was brought up here. Once you know the balance point, then what? Is it used to distribute any added build weight equally? I'm not following how knowing this will help at the ramp.
I know I'm going to kick myself when I read the answer. Haha
