Very different boat combination in this example.....a 12 foot Charger/ 90 hp Yamaha. The setup has a lot of setback for a 12 foot boat, very heavy motor which should make the boat run bow high/light in the nose....but it doesn’t! The boat has a bow gas tank to help balance the boat and stabilize the ride. Still a very dangerous combination especially in open water with wave and wind conditions.

Looks like a good ride! Might have been cool if it was a 15” motor!
