I understand that Trim Tabs will not help increase my boat speed but they should help to lift the stern. I also understand that a hydrafoil on the gear case of the motor will also lift the stern.
The problem is I do not have the garage space for the additional 6 to 12 inches to back up into the garage, thus it would be better to add the Trim Tabs.
Does anybody have an opinion on Trim Tabs vs. Hydrafoil?
Which one is better?
What benefits do each offer?
Will it smooth the ride out?
Will it increase speed?
Will it stay on course better?
Note: I have a:
15'2 Klamath ADW Windshield series aluminum boat.
40 HP Evinrude ETEC
6HP Tohatsu Four stroke as a kicker
Used on coastal waters off San Diego and in the San Diego Bay.
Used on lake and rivers
So far I have topped out at 28.5 MPH (per GPS)
Thank you for any information you can provide.
