Looking for feedback on adding Smart Tabs to my H18B.
I think I'm still having more trouble than I should keeping the front end down in slightly rougher water.
I happen to have a new set setting on the shelf in the garage a bud gave me a while back.
Thinking about sticking em on.
Wondered if anybody had tried Smart Tabs on either an H18B or an H20B?
Thanks

Short answer, no.
I don't know how much it will do for you. The xpress doesn't have that steep of a V to take the waves. It may pound you more being the alum hull is so light and it taking waves head on with a shallow V. When I had my h20b i found it best to get on top as much as I could and run it
There are 100s on xpress bay boats around here and 0 have tabs that I've seen.take that for what it's worth
What prop are you running? I really like my trophy plus. It lifts the whole boat rather than just the bow. In rougher water I trim down and try to cut through the waves a little. These H18s are prtty light on the bow though, and aren't made for the real rough stuff in my opinion. Sorry that doesn't answer you're question, but that's my two cents.
