No science at all behind it but I have seen owners of downeast style boats in the 28-40’ range realize significant increases in speed by adding...
Understood- sorry to hear... Another trick to test the effect of tabs/wedges is to take a rope (1/4” poly) and tie it under your stern from cleat...
OK its finally sunk in- you just have to tell me 3 ways lol. THank you. I have to say the outboard options still hold more appeal (as...
