I think you will find that you won't get as much flotation as you expected due to the weight of the added materials at the back of the boat and also keep in mind that the surface of the water curves up from the bottom of the boat on plane... not a straight line.... IF I did such a mod I think I would keep the bottoms flat with the hull bottom but honestly I think I'd be more inclined to move batteries as far forward as possible and get plugs for the scuppers.... and of course find a lighter engine OR a bigger boat
