[QUOTE="rgpemt, post: 207309, member: 5684"] Definitely more the weight you have that is portable...fuel tanks, batteries, etc. The wet foam thing should not go unchecked either...Folks home think I am loosing my mind when I tell them that I pulled out close to 1200 pounds of WET SATURATED FAOM! I cannot believe the difference in the performance! I had to re-adjust the pitch pin on the outboard after the "refurb diet". If you move your battery(ies) make sure you use heavy enough cable...I recomend nothing smaller than #4 copper...even better is #4 Welding cable. Dont forget to "NO-Ox" the connnections to prevent corrosion. [/QUOTE]
