Trim Tabs
 

Has Anyone Seen Tabs Installed Like This Before. I Don't Think They Would Be Very Effective.

I did that on my little 19 footer because at speed it is riding on about the last two feet of bottom.

Re: Trim Tabs
 

I checked my steering clearance first,i assume this guy did also .What kind of boat is this?

Re: Trim Tabs
 

hey suess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Trim Tabs
 

No chit! :evilb: A big surprise waiting to happen. :evilb:

Re: Trim Tabs
 

Saw them mounted flat but in that far on a 26 Velocity many years ago. The boat had big power and once up in the pad the rest of the boat is out of the water.

Re: Trim Tabs
 

If you look closely, you can see the tabs are cut down considerably on the inner edge closest to the drive. I bet the drive swings both ways just fine...

...just like Craig. JC told me so.

:D :D :D

Brand new sonic at the lauderdale boat show last year.
all I can figure is OOPS!

Re: Trim Tabs
 

The set-up in the first picture will make the boat think its longer, and will continue to influence the boat at high speed with only a small tab angle. If they were wide, they would lift out of the water at speed and you would over compensate with the angle. Than when you go to turn the fun will begin. :eek:

wierd :cool:

Re: Trim Tabs
 

just put the tabs down before you turn that boat

Re: Trim Tabs
 

Sonic just hasn't cut the tabs yet. Probably just got it ready for the show in time.

Taps are installed on the wrong side. move left tap to the right and right tap to the left

Re: Trim Tabs
 

My Bad, your right, I didn't look close enough. They cut the tabs on our pache, so I asumed Sonic was going to do the same.
