I did a lot of research and made a lot of calls to boat builders all over the place and most ot them told me to use this so i guess theres a lot of different ways you can go about it i just went the magaraty.

pad

2 Attachment(s)

Im going to run a 9'' pad from the transom tapering down to 0 10' long, this will give me alot more lift , less drag and put my chine reals lower for added Stability at high speeds should give me a 6 to 9 mph speed gain. hi have moved my x chine reals 5'' as well with a imco 12-3 box and a -2 speed master shorty lower. Im trying to get in to the 80s i sure ill be the with this set up next summer. I have a lot of work going on but it will pay off when its done.
