Here’s a few pics. I don’t know exactly but looks like a couple inches. I can get more pics or a measurement next weekend if you need.

You have probably said somewhere, but exactly how do they help? Better ride? Faster time to plane? they look great!

D. All of the above.

I dont need to use any tab to plane. Don’t need to run the boat with any tab at all. Kick the drives out a bit and run it. Zero porpoise. Stays on plane easier at low speed as well. Things are pretty awesome.

Tank, did you have any cavitation / blow out issues before hand? Its something I'm fighting with my 28' Pantera (notched transom), especially while on plane and trying to add a bit of positive trim. Have been playing with props and drive height thus far, but this may be a viable option as well.
