My experience with the bigger , heavier 200 hp on V21 the larger tabs work better at getting the bow to dig best through chop.

In tight 2-3’ I often run tabs full down , motor full down to hold nice slow plane and plow through without pounding.

BGreene...the g2 200 with a 4 blade brought my planing speed down, instead of 18 to 20 mph to cut the chop, now its 15 to 16mph. Also better mpg now...i am impressed with it. Wish i had a bit bigger tabs though...the lenco's have been awesome..10 yrs on them now!!
