[QUOTE="huntinfool, post: 355643, member: 1931"] If it were me, I get the tank you want for a live well and fill it with water. Get your motor mounted and battery and your fuel tank. Load your fishing gear and add another person and get it on the water. See what it does. Maybe you can move it forward, maybe not. That would be the best test. I just know some of these smaller twins loaded down and two guys have a harder time planing. Once you figure out the best spot for everything, you'll have a better idea what you will need to build. Again JMHO. As for the tank, I see no problem with that, should work great. I had an old camper that I robbed the tank from for that same purpose. I ended up with another boat and didn't have to do that project, but I did have plans to do it. [/QUOTE]
