Hi all
No affiliation with these guys what so ever - chasing a review from someone that has them, been in a boat fitted with them or seen them.
Ive repowered the 4.2 tinny with a motor 21kgs heavier, transom gets a bit of water over now sitting in rough conditions etc, moved fuel up front to help, didnt fix it, came across these boat collars yesterday, look ugly as sin but thinking this may help out.

waiting on email from them with price. going what they give as a rough guide guessing $1200 for the DIY kit

Boat collar
One of the guys at work the other day was explaining he has just done this to a large dinghy he owns and whilst im not sure of the brand of collar it certainly fits the description.
He reckons the boat now handles better and more predictably at rest and is also very pleased with its sea handling whilst motoring around. Reckons its chalk and cheese and was absolutely wrapt.
He installed himself and said the hardest part was drilling into his pride and joy. If you would like to discuss further more than happy to pass on your number or alternatively I can try and grab his.....
