That's prob what I should do. Thanks for the advice guys. I think another prob is the position of my mast. It's all the way in front may have to move it back a few ft. I only run a 18 ft tinner so I don't have a lot of room. It's just that say I'm trolling west and there's a 1 to 2 ft chop my inside bourd stays tight no prob but my outside is constantly slack that's why I was thinking another keel would keep it tight?
