I was just curious what you meant when you said ‘your glad Sea Ray didn’t make that bow any shorter than it actually is ..’
When I’m out plowing around in heavy seas it’s not uncommon to take waves over our bow, and I hate it and it makes the admiral nervous.
the guys who have recommended bigger tabs are right, we are nowhere near full tabs when we are running. Full tabs slow the boat down and pound the waves. Speed picks up and exhaust gas temps go down as the hull frees up when raising the tabs to between 1/2 and 3/4 down
Maybe you just are to heavy in the back.
I don’t have a hydraulic platform, just a 9 1/2’ rib on the standard platform
