I think the pods will be huge help but, my moving my butt closer to the bow may still be required.I agree with your statement of changing one thing at a time but, that‘s not always practical. The balance and stability was so far off that I‘m not comfortable taking it out again without more floatation in back or more weight up front.Edit - I suppose I can throw some weight in the bow and give it another try with the trim fully forward. Then try other trim settings.</blockquote>
