what do you have for tabs????

glad to see everyone is ok, theres a big different in running a boat with lil tabs and 380 k planes. I've run all 3 in my 24. the lil ones use to break off lol. I'm running the 380s on the 28footer. there great as long as you know where they are. I would stick with cables. good luck Mike.

Dual ram Bennetts.

How much "feel" do you have for the tabs on a multi stepped hull in a turn? Maybe tab was being used while turning and wasn't where the indicator said? Just a thought I know going straight it's obvious when a tab is dragging

There is where the difference in your opinion and your experiences will be drastically different than this 29O/L, I too have twin ram bennets and mine I have even modified by making relacement tabs from stainless that are 22" long. Even with mine legthened I can only feel them making boat handle slightly different, it does drag my boat when they are buried BUT I could drive there and boat wouldn't trip on a wave or anything real crazy. On the other hand I have driven a boat about the size of mine with the giant race ones, holy SHIIT, with them buried it felt like the boat was going to bury the bow and go under water and if they weren't even it was dangerous to drive , my guess would be they put some pretty big tabs on that boat to make it act longer/run stable and it is critical to have the tabs in the right position, Smitty

Not to mention the actuation on a high perf tab system is way way faster than a dual ram bennett. If it was a tab problem I'd bet the up/down was backwards on one tab. That will throw you for a loop.

Just glad to open up one of these threads and find out that nobody was hurt.

Just guessing but if the indicator was bad, and the tab was not in the position he expected I can see where you could be surprised. And it makes more sense if they were not running hard, because at speed you would definately feel the tab being off. I can't comment on this or any other boat, but I would never drive mine without working indicators. On my boat a small tab change makes a big difference, only need to tap the buttons to make normal adjustments.

Why do u guys keep talking about tabs. The driver and the police reports say it was a wave that caused roll.
