Just purchased a 25 daytona. When looking at 25 and 26 daytonas ive noticed on half the boats i looked at had 2 fixed plates on the back like tabs. Was wondering what the purpose is? The boat I bought doesnt have any just wondering if I need to install some also if helps the boat in anyway.

Tunnel tabs, if you have a single step Daytona, they reduce the slight porpoise you might see at about 60-75 mph in flat water. I have them on my Advantage as well, they work good.

i have them on a 25 daytona single step, and i still get the porpoise. they were on the boat when i purchased it so i don't know how much of the rock has been taken out. the porpoise is the worst when the water is very flat. if there's some water chop it doesn't seem to be quite as evident.

Did you buy that boat new or used. Where do you live??
