Anyone have pictures of thier 280's with K-planes? I have owned this boat for a year and love it. It's all stubbed out for the Tabs...Indicators, controls, even the wiring for the switches is there.......just no tabs. I have the last pieces to the puzzle now and am trying to figure out where to mount them. If anyone has suggestings or best practices, I'd like to hear from you.

Thanks J

Here's a bigger pic of the boat.

And the transom

One last one, these are what I'm putting on, Ebay specials 380s I think?

Here some of my VR-1 with 280 K planes.....

For what its worth, I can't imagine not having them.

Thanks, that is exactly what I was hoping to hear.
Did you order the boat with them or add them after? How fast are you going with what power? Is your Avatar your boat?

Here's how mine are mounted...

My boat was a race boat in a previous life.... so it was all set up when I bought it. It was used to set the F1 speed record in 2002 at 83.95 with a stock 500EFI, now runs 82gps with a windshield & cabin, same motor but has been warmed up a little. In the usual configuration (loaded with beer and gas.... and light-wieght bikinis!) it is a 78 mph boat.

Besides making it a breeze to get on plane with a race-labbed hydro, the tabs make all the difference in keeping the ride tolerable (ie- no broken beer bottles in the cooler and no bruises underneath the aforementioned bikinis!) while still running with the big boys (65+) in 2-3 footers.

Not really sure if these pics will be helpful as these were twin engine boats that went to the UK but here is how the factory installed the K-planes.
