Great video Skydog! Are you running jack plates ?My boat doesnt have plates and I was just wondering if there was alot to gain.I think my motors are in the 3rd hole .Have you any experiance with a tunnel tab?

The setback is ok not sure if it helped much. I know with weight in the boat it had to help! Never messed with a tab i dont want any more holes in the transom than i need.

I've been talking to Randy Corson, who is a dealer for Liberator.He puts tunnel tabs on all his boats.Liberator makes a 25FT boat based on the 24 skater and the 25 motion.25s do have a hop problem.Sometimes you can drive rite through it and sometimes it will start hopping at 80 mph.I just bought a merc k plane.Im bout to make me a tab.Im sure with more hp it would help but before i repower i'll buy a 28 skater unless i get a great deal on some on some 300x.s.All and all the 25s are fun boats and if you can hang they will go through some rough ****.
