i have a 14ft mudbuddy with a 25hp kohler engine on it with the longtail drive i was wondering if anyone could give me a tip on how to make it more stable it wants to flip way to easy i have the 6 gallon gas tank and battry in back with me im 210 pounds i know that dont help. if i move that other stuff forward would that do anything for me. i made a performance pod but it slows me down ALOT so i might take it off. what would you guys try out thanks for any help

you should get paid for advice like that. I suggest you run for office, or get a day time talk show.

try and re locate a lot of your stuff.

Battery/gas tank/cooler etc.... Move it forward

Try and find that good balance point on your boat at WOT by yourself and - it's kind of a trial by fire.

Good luck

The first thing you better do is get a life jacket and then start moving stuff around.

i run a 23 lt on a 1448 i have no probs... how wide is your boat also weight divided out throughout the boat on a longtail is a must... i weigh 225 and push my rig at 20mph empty try putting the battery up front and other gear

i moved my battry into my dry box an my gas tank up to the front now i just need to test it. yes i made sure the pods tilted up a little it might be a little more then half inch. this is my first year with a mud buddy is it suppossed to be so hard to turn and keep my prop down when running full throttle
