The Potter Sceptre doesn't do this because the bow is lighter.
Any idea why the bow is lighter?
Yea, the top cap on the post Potter boats (don’t know about Tracker models) is thicker. SeaCraft Industries used 3/4" plywood with 3/8" glass on each side of the wood. The Potter boats have 1/2" balsa wood. Also the liners where the cushions go in the cabin seem to be thicker on the SeaCraft industries boats. All of this extra weight adds up and makes it sit a little bow heavy unless it has twin engines.
