Very cool Cowbro... this is great to see 
Good to know about the trim issue. I reinforced the forward anchor and chain locker in front of the berths.. just in case It needed trimming with weights. The two anchors, chain is all forward with a pile of other gear, chemical head etc... I will fill the 5 g water tank between the seats. Also I planned for 2 coolers under the seats, those can be filled as required.
Chicagoross said she rides best when loaded down. Glad to hear about your plowing into chop, comforting to know.
While surfing I saw water ballast bags on Amazon, very clever product.. check it out. I'll get a few, if not I'll use those regular disc weights if I need to more.
