[QUOTE="Rat, post: 109647, member: 1914"] You definitely have too much weight in the front of that boat. Either you need to move astern or your batteries do. Putting a bigger motor may help, just make sure you stay within the limitations of the hull. But I would bet that just moving the console aft past midpoint would get her on plane. As far as moving people around to get on plane; it doesn't surprise me that you can't get on plane with all those people in the boat no matter where they are positioned. A 13 footer with 3 guys, batteries, gear, decks etc is a pretty heavy rig. You need a 16 footer! :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
