[QUOTE="bassboy1, post: 72269, member: 55"] I run a 40 tiller. My 2 batteries are up front, and my boat is pretty heavy, so it rides fairly level. I just installed my kicker motor, and having an extra 50 pounds, set back 12 inches off the transom does run me slightly bow high, but not bad at all. Put a good bit of weight forward. Generally, a battery in the bow, along with other heavy stuff will be adequate, leaving your fuel tank in the stern even in these smaller vees. [/QUOTE]
