I agree 100%! Keeping the boat's CG where it was designed to be is very important to overall boat performance, ride and handling and just as important as keeping your feet dry if not more so! Plus the SF models don't have a whole bunch of freeboard to start with - I prefer to have the gunnel at or above my knees, not down around my ankles!
