Scott, Is your dad's Sceptre a Potter built boat? Mine is the CSY boat and I don't think that the Potter built boats are as bow heavy as the CSY ones. I have allready installed a jack plate with the 5" set back. My boat doesn't have the live well in the deck, however it does have a storage area that is empty which is located just aft of the cabin door. The gas tank has been moved soo far back that it is only about 1'6" from the transom. The only thing that I have in the bow is the cushions and life jackets. The anchor and rope is also in the very bow, but I need for it to stay there.
