Default 28 Velocity

looking to buy a 28 with a 496/425. The only thing i dont like is
no trim tabs. It seems to me that there should be tabs on this boat.
Any opinions

I was in the same situation. Decided to try it without them this year. Put the money into a stereo instead. In the rough stuff I think tabs will help keep the boat in the water. Will probably put them on next year.

I have a set of nice K-380's I use in the wind every now and then.

Trim it up just past neutral and run the pad.

Mine are ussually all the way up.

That boat in your signature looks like my old boat, did you buy it in Michigan?
