I woulda thought it was the otherway around.

By moving weight forward you will plow the nose. The compinsate for that you have to trim the drives higher to get the nose up. At lower speeds (cruise) 50-60 you starts porposing, then you have to add tab to compinsate for that which slows you down. Visious circle. This is not always the case, especially with step bottoms. But from experience that is what I have found.

I guess the porposing depends on the set up, here is mine at 65 or so and riding great. Tabs are above level.

Although my boat is not a Tiger...it's been my experience that driving a boat with rocker requires it to be on it's heels to go fast.

There's a fine line between carrying the nose, and getting it up on the rocker (you can see some of it in Kenny's video).

loose = fast
