My Formula 292 with steps barely needs any drive trim up. maybe 1-2 bumps off full down. anything higher just wastes power. It's a funny feeling coming from a no step hull where you trim it up to gain speed/efficiency. I then use the trim tabs to keep it level side to side as the wind and my passengers move around.

Hello,

The tubes on my 288 fell off so I had to make new ones. I used 1/2 pvc. Hard to do and the curve is not as smooth as the original.

Hello,

I was having a very bad vibration over 50 and my dealer put a tube they received from Sunsation on and the vibration went away.

It’s strange because the tube they put on fell off and the vibration didn’t come back. I originally put on two straight tubes at 3/8 and then someone else at Sunsation told me to put on 1/2 and curve it like the picture above.

I don’t think the tubes I put on extend as far after the bend.
