Welcome!
I wouldn't have thought you could get the rev limiter with that prop. Guessing your close to sea level. Guys around here (4500') run 23's & don't get that many revs. If a 26 works, I have a labbed 28 that should turn about the same as a 26 & get you a few more mph that I'd like to unload. As far as the tabs, you should rarely need them. I only use mine in rough water to smooth the ride. I'm hoping to try that 26 by this weekend, If you want you could shoot me an email of your asking price [email protected] and yeah the elevation here on the Miss river is 572' Thanks Mark |

I have a buddy offering me to borrow a left handed 26 but its left handed. Is it ok to test it running reverse?
What motor do you have? I have been depressed about its performance hearing so many saying its a 73-75 mph boat and all Ive seen is about 72 on gauge. 72 to on gauge tells me about 68 on gps. I have also trying to get these trim tabs figured out (Dana Marine HP1000 23") I have no indicator and I cant seem to get it on top of the water. |
Indiana Rage, Wanna Trade motors Only 117 hrs? LOL
I've only run in it glass like water and awaiting some good chop. I do have the closed bow and really hoping I get better results. |
I am quite happy with mine, I have only 118 hrs on mine. What engine do you have in yours?

Nice boat. I like where your tabs are mounted/positioned, but that is a lot of tab (23"s) for a Rage. I'm 6"s less on my Heat, and it seems like plenty, of course our water usually isn't that rough.
Chris B did an interesting experiment on his tabs to see what effect they were having. He removed the bottom plates completey, and tied off the rams. Something you could try. Regards, Steve |
Great looking boat, instead of trading engines we could just trade boats.:lolhit:
