Sea Trials were an absolute success. Basically, everything people have said on this board is true. The boat comes out of the hole with very little bow rise and is maintaining a plane at 15mph without a problem. No more jockeying the throttle to hold speeds compatible with wakeboarding and kneeboarding.
At low speed there is a bit of a rooster tail which is new, but presents no problems for captain or skier. The wake does appear to have washed out a bit but my wakeboarder did not complain. I've noticed no problems at wot nor any loss of top end. At idle speed there is no wander at all.
Overall, I have to give the Smart Tabs an A+. I wish I had done this last year when I first looked into it.
I played around with my trim angle and was able to get most of the rooster tail to disappear. YMMV.
