    i know i have said it before i have found it better to build an overpowered boat and calm it down than try and make a slower boat faster
    Sure I understand,I was just thinking if you ran it at 65mm, and you didnt like the temps or it didnt turn enough rpm, you could shave a little off, as you have done, but you cant put it back on, do the trim tabs you put on cuase the boat to corner any differently, they are just acting as a wheely bar or sorts, is that correct?

      some people say don't use trim tabs on a cat , they work well for me on the 29" phantom no problems with cornering if i have wheelie issues on the falcon i will be using them on that too ( if you look at the last pic on the phantom you can see them holding it level on full throttle )
