Hey Steve, thanks for the info. I actually got down there yesterday and was able to climb all over his mid cabin. I am absolutely in love with the boat now. I do want a closed bow version for sure and will be looking hard. Just need to sell my Pachanga and my bike now. Love the pic Steve. Looking forward to being a part of the Nordic family.

Hi Jay,
We are here to help even future members of the Nordic Navy :grinser010:.........
Bob has a beautiful and fast boat. I love his new EFI system. What a piece of mechanical art!
Regards,
Steve

Ned,
Some things you could do with the Bennetts. I was playing around with mine before I switched to the Eddies.
A. just raise the entire tab and rams, 1" or more to create a step effect between your transom edge and the tab.
B. you can move the ram mounting plate on the tab outward, which will raise the end of the tab to + 3 or 4 degrees to keep it from dragging when the nose is up.
C. Both :drink:.......
Looking at your boat running, the tabs look like they are working well to reduce chine walk. They are mounted in a much better position than mine were. Like you and Chris, I wonder if they are slowing your boat. One way to find out.
Regards,
Steve

Steve,

those are all great ideas... i never thought about moving the ram mounts out a little to reduce the angle a bit... if i gain anything removing the plates, i'll try that

i think you might be right on the chine walk. i'm going to try removing the plates tomorrow.
