[QUOTE="sixgun86, post: 235323, member: 5345"] I prefer more weight up front because I usually find myself out alone more than accompanied as less tilt is required to get on a plane, which is ideal for cruising. When riding by yourself, or with your better half I would adjust the tilt pin until you find which will work best w/ and w/o additional load. Past boats I would adjust the pin in when someone came along as it made a great difference since previously It was all the way out to keep the boat from porpoising, or bouncing while under load. The point before the bounce starts is the fastest it will go comfortably. Less weight will also make it a lot faster. Battery, cooler, etc. [/QUOTE]
