Nauticus Smart Tabs
Does anyone have any opinions on Nauticus Smart Tabs?

They have the regular model and the new SX ones. First hand experience anyone?

Thanks!

I have a factory set on my metzeler.
I have something like them on my rib. I was told that I could go faster without them on but have not taken them off to try. I would say though that they help me get up on plane faster after watching how they apperate while I take off at 3/4 power. If I had a motor with power trim I don't see the need for them however.

I installed them on a 4.5m rib w/ Yamaha F60 about 3 years ago. Very easy to install, and they did improve the ride a bit, at the expense of top speed.
