A stern heavy boat will tend to run bow high, will be hard to get on plane, will have a high min-planning speed (a big deal in rough water!), and will not ride as well in rough seas. You can compensate with trim tabs, a Doelfin and a 4B prop, but why start out with a non-optimum combination if you don't have to!
