[QUOTE="waterant, post: 515918, member: 34810"] I decided to mount just above the chin extrusion to provide more stability at slow speed and when not moving (loading at the dock or fishing). At high speed, those are above the water anyway. If I mount those higher, they will start working at large angle so the floor will not be leveled at rest or low speed. Following your example, those are more like outrigger floats. [/QUOTE]
