I may be going for a test ride soon and will report results.

that's what I was wondering. Someone else had told me that they like to lean a little more than some of his other boats and he just used the tabs a little more often with the sailfish.

what motors do you have?

The Hull is a 95 and the motors are 1995 evinrudes 200hp

Wondering what you guys think of a 90's sailfish powered by twin 200hp vs 225hp. heard there might be up to 10mph difference on top end? Thanks

I read somewhere that the sailfish needs more tabs to keep from falling off to one side or the other. I have never ridding in a sailfish and was wondering what the best way to trim the boat was. I don't really use much tab on my current boat only to level off a bit. Does the sailfish have a...

Thanks Information Scott, Just wondering what your performance is like with the E-Tecs.

Located a Grady and survey showed a Wet Transom. Had the Transom cored by local fiberglass company and he said that there was wetness but there was not rot. Transom has no flex or rot and insurance companies are not asking for a marine survey at this point. Should I be overly concerned at this...
