[QUOTE="Bowhunter1661, post: 431179, member: 9937"] Welcome to the board sir! I have a G3 1648 and 30 hp Nissan 4 stroke, PT&T, electric start. Front decks made from aluminum as well as my two group 27 batteries up front for the 24 V Minn-Kota. Sitting in the water my boat is very well balanced. With just me it does slightly nose down, not bad at all. With two guys it sits perfectly level. When I have my 15 hp two stroke on the make the nose tilts down pretty bad when just by myself and I have issues with keeping the transducer on the water. However, that heavy 4 stroke really evens out weight distribution. Also, when under way. The batteries up front really help with the ride quality and comfort. In the pic is my old 25 merc two stroke. With that motor and me by myself the nose still sagged pretty good when fishing off the casting deck. You should be pretty good with your setup. However I prefer aluminum. [/QUOTE]
