W and B with aux fuel tank

Hi

Eurocopter Germany just retrofited my chopper with aux fuel tank, that is placed in cargo area and has capacity 173kg of fuel.

As soon as I did some W and B calculations, I have doscovered, that unless I will have really fatty co-pilot, or two pax that are willing to sit whole time in opposite facing fron seats, I am behind rear limit of CG.

Since I fly usually myself, I am trying to figure out what to do, to be safe and legal. Anyone has experince, how to ballance this situation?
