Thats what I still need to do, cut some hatches in the rear bulkhead of the casting deck to stow some stuff, plus my dog likes riding up under there too.  I think the extra 50-60 lbs an extra foot or two forward is gonna make a lot of difference.  When running fast it does feel like she'll blow over if I run her any faster or turn into the wind.  Still need a different pitch prop though, and if I'm gonna buy one I want one that the boat performs the way she should under all conditions. 
 
I know what you mean about you La and Miss guys.  A friend of mine is a coonass that works on the oil rigs down there. 
 
His dad has a jon boat with twin 115 Mercs on the transom.
