Thanks Rick,
I'm going to try a lefty when I get the chance. I am noticing a lean to the left. My 24 leaned left until I trimmed it out a bit. Maybe I just need some more seat time to find the sweet spots.
Another ? about the k-planes. Most newer Y2Ks have the tabs parallel to the water now. I've also seen them parallel with the hull. The tabs on my 24 were parallel with the hull and seemed to have a greater effect when lowered.

Yea, definitly very sensitive, the parrallel to the water may be the same way, but I havent been in one set up like that, keeping my fingers crossed, I should be in the water sat for first ride of the season

Good idea. I have a battery on each side now. I keep my "gear" box on the star side. Anchors, tools, etc., probably weighs 75 lbs or so. I try to seat passengers to help too.
