When you add the #6 you have to add a transmission or in my case a crashbox so the engine will have to be moved 9 to 11 inches depending on what you use.My 32's CG was forward and worked good in the 6 conversion being my optimum CG was better with the 6.A 28 foot boat might not work as good.

that's what worries me.the cg
This would definatly rule out the trans in an extension box

I have no cabin up front.The boat probably weighs about 5300 lbs. now with the 6.

My pantera 28 has a full cabin and I think it is a little heaver. Do you think that would favor me for this application
