[QUOTE="Derek, post: 219701, member: 2615"] Originally both batteries were mounted in the rear, but they were also smaller batteries then I run in my boat. I moved one battery up front, thinking it would help it get on plane faster. Currently I have mine set-up with a 12-gal tank (pass side) and a group 27 battery (drivers side) in the rear compartment. Then the group 31 battery in the pass side compartment up front. With a full tank of fuel and just me the boat sits fairly level side to side. With another guy my size the boat will list to the pass side, but doesn't seem to make much difference at speed (-1 mph), just a larger wake. I also have a 6 gallon fuel tank I can add into the rear compartment for when I need more fuel capacity. [/QUOTE]
