stern heavy

[cobiawayne]

got a 71 20 ft cc seacraft, closed in transom and installed a livewell in transom,26 inch stainless marine bracket.I have played with some weight up front and as long as I,m the only one in it its great,but when I have some else with me I have to run really trimmed down.I,m running a laser11 19stainless prop.I use the boat mostly for offshore fishing.I,m wondering if anyone has experience with this setup and if I need to go with trim tabs or smart tabs or just one of those doel fins.Oh yeah its a 97 merc 200 top speed 53 mph gps.Got a great deal on the motor,can,t afford to change motors.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Thanks
