Been looking at adding a IBS up front on my '12 LSV also..... As @Sandm mentioned though the idea of bringing the bow any lower makes me very nervous as rollers are always a concern on our small lake.... We take a trip down to Norris once a year though and down there I wouldn't worry much about it..... My boat gets 98% of its use on small Indiana lakes though and you wouldn't believe how choppy it gets in a hurry on the weekends.
