Default Moving People Instead of Tabs

As Bushwacker has remarked before, Bob Reiland (rest his soul) probably made over 25 trips between WPB and the Bahamas in his "Unoho" 21' SeaCraft with an I/O which he bought from Carl at the Miami boat show. He always moved people, coolers or whatever around to maintain trim. I was on a couple trips with him, but on another boat.
