Crew/weight on the Bow

I sail several boats, and we mostly stay off the bow, but an exception is our Catalina 22. For some reason this boat performs best with most of your weight on the bow. It''s not a little difference; it''s like magic how the boats with the big fat guy on the bow pulpit take off.
