Some thoughts.
Batteries forward. Foam core in fuel tank hatch. Stern lifting prop. Hydroshield. ( the last two help running)
A bench seat tank forward. A smaller tank forward.
A tank that doesn't let 30 odd gallons slosh aft as you try to get on plane.
No t-top. The t-top moment is like a heavier motor when running.
I have dry decks with 420 lb of motor(s) on the transom of a 20 MA. Tank and batteries are well forward. Will put a whaler style under seat tank forward of the console this year.
