zero fuel w & b
I weigh 170, so the only ballast I carry is around my ass. 8^)

I fly a homebuilt Savannah (there are quite a few flying in Oz) and if
the pilot weighs less than about 120 pounds, and the fuel is nearly
exhausted, the CG is just slightly forward of the envelop.

Tom, do you carry some ballast to correct this? I know nobody plans to run
out of fuel but if it happened , say from a fuel leak, I would hate to be
worrying about an off field landing with a forward cg.
