[QUOTE="Monster1, post: 507478, member: 34908"] True. The more hull in the water, the more drag. 24mph is pretty fast in this little thing. I'm good with cruising. Yes. It probably is smaller than I should have bought. That's kinda where the remorse kicks in. However, I just have to remember that I bought this boat for getting into the back of creeks, not to fish bigger water or take my family out for a cruise. It serves that purpose with caution as of right now. Before I go with pods or moving the console to the center, I think I'll do as suggested and move the fuel tank and battery forward. Pods are about 300 bucks so if I need to add them it won't break the bank. And I think if I build a new forward and rear casting deck, it will increase the sellablity factor. I may just fish this thing all winter and sell it in the spring. I've seen a few 1448's redone on YouTube and I'd have to say they built them into a fishing weapon. [/QUOTE]
