dammmm them are some big tabs on that there boat

Bigger is always better

Hey Dan Great talking with tonight
Thanks again for letting me try that prop
What is the determining factor when choosing the tab size and location ?
Also you mention the balancing of the boat i'm guessing your referring to the CG ? If so where are you placing it ? Mines 87" from the transom about 10" in front of the harmonic balancer
Again trying to sort out this 28' single engine big HP #5 drive with a two speed
thanks again

I have a 27 speedster,,,,that came with with 22" tabs on it
and tabs were too touchy on the small deep vee hull
1 tiny bump on 1 and boat jumped to side,,,,too hard to fine tune and agrivating
nothing more agrivating than keep bumping tabs to get right spot
even tried 6 volt reducer to slow down pumps
cut off 6" down to 16" and lots better at 40-70 crusing speeds in some slop
nothing worse than boat changing drastically with a milisec bump
long tabs on short boat,,,,,,
btw ,,,,did a great job on the speedster

Are those tabs longer than the standard merc long tabs? If so who makes them and how long are they?

what did the CV stand for in the scarab CV

Hmmm... Dan, are you prepping to break your old LS 26 speed record with the new Speedster??

Keep us posted when you can.

Cheers,

Dave

Nope they are standard 300 s tabs from Merc. And as far as the record that class is long gone but it would be fun!

30" I think

Correct
