Good thing about a tank is you can fill it when you need it and empty it when you dont, where just adding weight will hurt a bunch when you don't need it. the farther forward you put it the less amount you need.

...and a sizable bow tank adds a big polar moment of inertia which can have a negative impact on pitch stability. Shifting the large masses (engines) to achieve the desired Lcg position (with a small bow tank to fine tune) works much better from a dynamic stability perspective.

how much does shifting the motors effect a 33ft v bottom????? for instance shifting motors 1 inch equals how many inches of COG change???????
