[QUOTE="Kismet, post: 282742, member: 8516"] Yup. Smaller boats like a balanced life. :) I've got about 50 lbs of sand in an army surplus rubberized laundry bag. When I have no passenger, I put that lump of a thing in the front to balance the boat. One 12ftr I had liked the bag to the left front, because it was sensitive enough to cant with MY weight being in back to the right. I can shape and shove it all the way up to the prow, if I choose. Simple thing. I've heard of folks using old inner tubes from cars or trucks as a container. Boat will travel better, easier in chop, and be easier to steer. Have fun. [/QUOTE]
