Come get these tabs...he needs 'em worse than I do...

The placement of my tabs make them near useless when I fly the V. They are 6" out of the water and catching a little spray is about all.

To quote Steve Steppe's comment about stepped hulls "if you are running fast enough, that part of the boat ain't in the water anyway"

update on the SeeVee, Marc took it out last week after we finally got nose cones on the lower units. It ran 71 mph both ways on the gps spinning 24P choppers. NO HEATING PROBLEMS! The tachs are only 6K and it bury's them, we figured assuming 10% slip, that should have put it at 6400(pushing thru the factory rev limiter). Next step is a set of Brucato ecu's with the rev limiter pushed up to 7200 and a promax curve. After that, 26p choppers. I'll let ya'll know how it runs

Sweet!

71 in a fishing boat will be sure to piss off the go fast big block crowd.

I found a Sea Vee project down in Gainesville Fla for $1500.
