If I understand it correctly, the pole in the dd is placed in front of the motor in the center of the boat for the reasons mentioned to keep the boat from swinging around. makes total sense from a weight distribution standpoint. now in a vdrive, all the weight is over the a$$ end of the boat. would it not be the best position to have that pole directly in front of the engine where the weight is as opposed to the middle of the boat where there's no weight to counteract the actions of the skier? with no additional weight around the pylon in the center, it would seem to me that a skier cutting hard would risk pulling the nose of the boat around since all the weight is in the rear?
