Joe W, John F and all other Mono gurus:
Lets say I have a 21 mono that that weighs 4 pounds fully dressed and an identical one that weighs 3 pounds fully dressed. What do I need to consider regarding CG or whatever on the lighter one. My first inclination is that the boat will be faster, accelerate better, and pull props easier, with a shorter pipe. I think that I will have to re-balance the boat because of the increased speed, but I am guessing that most of the same rules (cg, break point etc.) apply regardless if the boat weighs 3-4 or 5 pounds. What am I missing.. Thanks Tony J
