Value of trim tabs on CD-25

Just as a comment, the C-Dory catalogs, on the last page, has a list of optional equipment for the various C-Dory monohulls. Trim tabs are listed as standard for the 25 and 19 (don't ask why.) This is a 2004 catalogue, but I don't think they've taken anything away.

I'm not sure what size (area) of trim tabs they're putting on the newer CD-25's, but I had to increase the area of mine about 40-50% to make them effective below 13 knots. I have twins, could be some difference there. The boat handles absolutely beautifully, on a plane all the way down to 9-10 knots. Try that in a deep-V!

That is a topic for a whole 'nother thread, but the factory website needs a SERIOUS overhaul (yoohoo, Jeff M or Tom L, are you listening)? Laughing
