Re rigging 26
 
What kind of trim tabs have worked well on the 26?

looking like twin 250ho etecs are in the future, around thanksgiving. I need to research what was the best setup with setback and weight for the 26. Richie and Christine could probably help with that i'm guessing. They put out around 270hp and weigh 504lbs.

I had k keifer 280s I think on mine worked great

Put a solid stand off box on it like Jimmys or my old one I was reall happy with that set up, Although the more I get used to it the more I like the porta set up.

whats the weight on a 300x or xs compared to those and also the weight on a merc 2.5 200? just for comparisons sake.

stand off box as in the stainless marine bracket for the motors? or a standoff box for the tabs?

thats what i was confused about, never heard of such a thing. haha.

so the k plane 280s are better because they are longer and make the boat think it is a 31 footer?

Either 280's or 380's. Only put Mercury tabs on the boat though. Anything else is junk........unless they're made by us!!:D
