FT has a full scan of his hull and was kind enough to take some measurements
from my hull.

GFS,

It was a pleasure meeting up with you again.
YD may have had to put that much weight forward to make her float properly with those engines on a bracket.
Carl's the man with the amazing knowledge... I just ask questions and absorb what I'm able to comprehend. I'm looking forward to watching your project come together.

All the Best,
Steve

Default CG Shift with Heavy Engines

GFS & Flyingtime-
Regarding the twin Zukes on a bracket & relocation of fuel tanks, you might be interested in seeing my post of 9-24-16, Estimating CG Shift with Heavy Engines. The results of Bushwacker's ETEC moved to a bracket collaborated pretty well with this estimating tool.

Jack`s Link?

These hulls are supposed to like weight aft.
The 150s weigh @750 and the bracket 200.

Trips back in the day were 900 on the transom.

With the 60 degree or more entry and skinny shoulders who knows.
I will be leaning heavily on the racehorses here and around the web.
