Re: 5th Shakedown Run
I think so...
I don't see how a tab could affect (effect?) the lean in turn since the water that the tab is in is already "shaped" from the pad and transom. The inside tab would have to dip into the wake to counter the lean. I don't know how or why an automatic tab like you have, would drop lower into wake. I'm leaving in the morning to go get wet and I'm going to video the wake shape, in a turn, and see if the water exiting the transom is higher on the inside of a turn. I just don't see why it would be different between straight and in a turn. In fact, I wonder if the outside of turn doesn't lift the it higher and allow the outside tab to extend farther into the wake. I love riddles like this ! I'm going to try running my inside tab down in a turn and see if it will level it enough to counter the lose of speed due to drag. |
Re: 5th Shakedown Run
Well think about it, the transom on the port side during a left turn, if it leans, would " dig in" along with that smart tab causing resistance forcing the starboard bow to want to drop, maybe i have 80lb acutators and theyre too much.

Re: 5th Shakedown Run
I also put the 80's on but there are several posts that recommend just 60's. I am at hole two. I emailed the company but they want me to try hole one before replacement.

Re: 5th Shakedown Run
Does the company advertise that their tabs are for flattening the turns ?

Re: 5th Shakedown Run
Not to my knowledge. I have been very happy with mine one I learned how to adjust the engine trim for various driving. I have left them in hole 2 because of my current average load has been 6 to 8 people
