Thanks guys. Without this website I would be lost.
Moving the console forward a foot. This also moves my gas tank a foot foward. Putting the batteries under the front casting platform. Will see how she floats and rides after that. Probably add a raised splashwell guard, like ya'll suggested. Adding 2 bilge pumps, mounted at different heights and a high water alarm. Will post some boat porn soon.
