sea ray no longer listing thanks Iboats

[wlharpold]

A while back I posted that my 94 sea ray was listing to the left at speeds of twenty mph or more. Took the advice given a got rid of the whale tale and replaced it with SE sport hydrofoil. It took care of the the list, and it plains out faster. The only problem I have is now when you really get on it out of the hole it sure sits the stern of the boat in the water. ( to the swim platform). any ideas if this is normal?

Somebody here recommended a hydrofoil? See all of the threads about Smart Tabs and/or trim tabs . . . They'll help your bow rise/stern squat.

Try different trim positions I think if you are trimmed out
it might dig a little until it starts to get up speed.
I've had good luck with foils but if I had it to do today it would be smart tabs.

trimming too high will dig your rear down.

Working too hard drags My rear end down.

Coming out of the hole trim down and tabs down, as the stern rises trim up to keep her level. A 'foil if trimmed up out of the hole will cause a squat becuse it tries to stay flat.
