[QUOTE="TxProud, post: 175973, member: 4655"] I have a '51 12' Starcraft semi v and am getting ready to fix er up. I am 220 lbs, have a 74 Johnson 6hp and trollinng motors front and rear. When I had it on the water, the aft sat very low in the water (bow pointing up) and was difficult to impossible to get the boat on a plane to see where I was going. I was thinking of placing the batteries in the Bow as far forward as I can, and running cable back to the rear trolling motor. I'm no boating expert and would like some advice to whether this is a good idea or are there other alternatives. [/QUOTE]
