[QUOTE="WaterWaif, post: 358710, member: 12444"] If solo you may need a little weight up front. Depends on motor size and trim. A longer run of wire if you run a trolling motor battery to put it up front might be enough. I run weight heavy aft solo but it's from putting every thing in the stern. While not identical to yours,a test drive would tell if your oar locks are far enough to also row from rear seat.A convenience I came to like even with some one in center seat. My little twelve rows like a leaf when solo and is fine for very skinny water with the gas motor tipped up first. V ends well before rear of hull allowing easy maneuvering, but it still cuts a bit out of waves taking out more of the banging of a flat front when wind is up. [/QUOTE]
