20 'Master Angler modifications

[Cptn5245]

I have a 2004 and love the boat. When I get aboard some water comes in the scuppers as other have mentioned. Being over 300# does not help the issue.

Would moving the console forward 6 to 12 inches help balance the boat better?

Would it help the porpoising that happens on occasion?

Would moving the batteries from the console to the below deck locker be a better solution?

Would trim tabs help get me on plane at something lower than 16 to 17 knots?

Would trim tabs help reduce the porpoising?

Thanks in advance for all of the help.
