[QUOTE="scoobeb, post: 394138, member: 6843"] That's the whole point I'm trying to accomplish,I want it heavy to counteract the heavy weight in the back of the boat. Me 300lbs,motor,136lbs,gas,say 30lbs. My outboard sits really deep in the water and I realized my outboard either needs raising or I can counter the weight in the front to lift the outboard a bit higher when running. I have a whole other thread about raising the engine but I want to try it this way first as it can't hurt it. With all the weight in the back it would take many hundreds of lbs to lift the motor out of the water so a few sheets of plywood shouldn't hurt it. [/QUOTE]
