Thread: trim tabs on a jet..good or bad??

    I am looking at a trim tab setup for my 23ft glastron cv23 and was wondering if it has any effect on the pump or why they didnt put them on stock? I know a place diverter is for jets, but I am still wondering about some trim tabs. Thanks Mike

    As big of a boat as you have I think you could run them with sucess!

    Are you wanting the kind which are adjustable on the fly, or some that you adjust and then leave ?

    I've seen some heavier jet boats have success with them, mainly getting on a plane and then trimming them back. Definitely won't hurt performance any. Pat

    What is it that you're trying to achieve by installing them? Yeah you can put them on there, but you might be chasing ghosts depending on what you're trying to accomplish. If this is in relation to your other thread about the top speed/pump performance issues, they're not going to do much to aid with that issue.
