Yes, they confiscated my gear. But, that's why I have it. Too many times I've seen guys move weight forward to keep their boats on the pond in less than perfect conditions. Not a good idea, bad things happen. However, if the weight is added right at the CG.

Strut adjustments aren't always the way to go, especially in heat racing. Conditions can change quickly and if you're an idiot like I am and race 6 or seven classes, there just isn't time. It takes only seconds to add weight before you tape up for a heat and you haven't changed the set up that you worked hard to get just right.
Just my .02 FWIW fellas. By all means do what works for you!
