Hi Guys;
I have a small problem, at 3/4 throttle or over I get a bit of porposing in my 4.3 m runabout.
I have fiddled with trim and all sorts of stuff with no success.
The only relief I have had is when I put my spare full fuel tank up front last weekend.
This takes up quite a bit of room and I dont like fuel up front with me so I thought perhaps to move the battery.
I have been told that moving mass to the front may help, this is where I would like to move the battery from the rear of the boat to up under the bow.
There is room for it to sit nicely, I could secure it so that it would not move and it would bring the damn heavy battery from the back to the front.
I have purchased some serious cable to run the 4 metres to the back and would just like to know if anyone has attempted this before or if there is any possible issues I would need to consider.
Thanks
