sounds like everyone pretty much agrees tabs are the way to go, was just wondering what size was reccommended for these hulls?

Think it depends how stern heavy you are. I sent Lenco my stats and they were the ones who recommended the 12 x 12's. Im 3k lbs maxed out/fully loaded

A $50 fin mounted on your outdrive will acomplish the same ride using your prop wash on a V20. I have used them on a couple boats now and swear by them. They should come from the factory like that. Huge improvement! But hey trim tabs are way cooler right? :)

Yep...I know there are many boats the fin helps a lot...they really are effective in what they do...but tabs do much, much more...you 'bout gotta experience the difference yourself to appreciate it...

I have a dol-phin and 9-12 Lenco with the digital tab indicator switches.
Can't say enough about it, so enough said! Rides like a hull should. BEST investment after the t-top!

Such as...... I know the boat can tend to pound in 2'-3' chop at most planning speed so when you put the bow down with the tabs, what's the sensation ? Less pound, no pound ? More spray in the boat I assume ? Any more difficult to steer with the bow cutting down into the chop ? Increase in fuel consumption is of course likely, as is decreased speed. For guys like me who are considering tabs, specifics.........like boat performance test results will be quite helpful. Thanks |
