9000 problem

I have recently had a second trial of my RTR 9000 which is a fast power boat. From the first trial it was clear that it was sitting rather low in the water at the stern. I have fitted two rather large 4500mAh batteries, one each side for balance. I tried reducing these to 2000mAh but the run time was rubbish. The boat moves well with the two larger batteries but I would like to alter the centre of gravity by moving the batteries much further forward. The problem is that there is foam inside the twin hull bow sections almost up to the opening. Is this performing a function or do you think I can remove it and place the batteries forwards. A second problem I have is that the rudder lifts upwards easily, I cannot decide if something has fallen off that should hold it in place. Does anybody know. I have added some pictures showing the foam and the rudder. Thanks. Peter.
