[QUOTE="Ebug, post: 441383, member: 11893"] Love the project. I have a 2012 1754SC that I converted to CC last year. I would not put that heavy tank behind you. I have a 20 gallon bait tank behind me that I rarely use because it makes the boat feel heavy and sluggish. My hull has the 11 gallon fuel tank in the back along with a group 27 battery. I have a large ice chest in front of the console and small one up on the front deck. I can pack the small one with water and 10-20 lbs of ice and I put 40 lbs of ice plus fish in the larger one. Both of those at full capacity have little noticeable effect on driving performance. You can see the water line on the side of the boat. I have since added a jack plate that moved the motor back 5-1/2" so the stern sits roughly 1" lower at rest now. I'll include a side picture below for reference. The picture without paint on the console was dry fitting for location. Rob [/QUOTE]
