Default K-planes???

Looking at buying a set of K-planes and they are 19 1/2in long. The pic makes them look real short and the guy states they are the 280S model. Will these work on a 27ft boot and is 19 1/2in long about the correct length?

Well I was over bidded on the 280S K planes. So iam back to searching for something. Should I look for longer ones like 20 plus inches? The boat should be able to hit mid 80's so i want to make sure I have the correct length tabs.
Thanks
Erik

in mercs book the 280s were made for boats up to 38ft, my bud has the 280s on a 46footer, the 380s I have are for boats with ex boxes or OBs with transom brackets, what did the 280s sell for.

So a 19 1/2in tab should be plenty for my boat is what your saying. The 280S K-planes ONLY, no pumps sold for close to $1200.

280's are plenty for a 27' boat.
