Yeah, I'm not a fan of 4 inches of freeboard. Getting the thing properly loaded is the key. I'd rather make the extra trip. Years ago, a close family friend used to take moose out using a canoe. He laid green branches across the gunnels and loaded the carcass across it. Some old family pictures showed that thing riding barely out of the water. smile
