Default Sea Monster CG ?

I just got a Sea Monster and I am working on the CG. It seems to need 9 oz. on the nose. Did anyone else have to add weight on this plane and how did you do it? Did you cut a hatch to put the led in?

I have flown mine with a Saito .72 (light engine) and a Magnum .70FS (heavier engine). The Monster balanced and flew well with either engine and the battery just stuffed in the area forward of the servos.
