I'm sacking out an 18' open bow Sea Ray and am curious what others have experienced with weight distribution on a boat of similar size. <BR> <BR>To play it safe, I'm thinking about adding 500 lbs to start. My options are somewhat limited...under the rear seat, ski locker or in the bow. <BR> <BR>Suggestions?

Oh yeah, I had been planning on 250 in the ski locker and 250 in the bow, but have also been thinking about 250 under the rear seat and 250 in the locker. Would that be too much weight toward the rear?

Put the weight in the bow and trim up 1/4 to 1/2.
