Message: <blockquote data-quote="acabtp" data-source="post: 349218" data-attributes="member: 5368">if i were you, i would take the boat out on the water as you have it now for a test run before you do anything else.my boat's pretty similar to yours and i originally set my batteries up the way that you have them, but it made the front end of the boat sit way too low in the water and made the handling very squirrely with the bow wanting to plow hard into any turn, even when running the trolling motor, and running the outboard was way too dangerous.  the front end of these types of boats have a lot less buoyancy than the rear due to the V hull.  i ended up having to move the batteries to the rear when i redid the boat, and now it sits fine in the water and runs great.just trying to save you some frustration and work later on.</blockquote>
