Ric...did you install the wrong tabs? The ones you installed are rated for 140 HP Max and the 4.3 is a 190 HP motor. Also you are a little over on upper limit boat length. Are those the ones they recommended due to size limits where you had to install them?

I'm not looking to spend more than 18k so you gotta keep that in mind. Boats sell cheap here. I really like the chap 215 theres quite a few around for under that. They have a huge cabin for a 20ft boat. 7ft long and the roof is 4ft above the seats. My stingray is 5ft long and 3ft tall total...and its 20ft! It's like stepping into a mansion.

I ordered them per recommendation of Nauticus. They told me what kind to get, what size springs, and where to put em on the hull to fix it's erratic behavior (including pictures of my exact model boat). They were spot on, the boat rides wonderful now. If it wasn't the want for a roomier cuddy I'd keep the boat now.

Boat is officially gone.

Buyer came at 10am, took it for a sea trial. They paid broker bank of america cashiers check. We went to BOA, verified funds, signed title over, handed the boat to the customer, then went to the brokers bank, he pulled out cash minus $1500 brokers fee, handed me a big bag-o-cash, and that's that.

So in the end I got 19,5. Not bad considering I only paid 14,5

It's going to Slovakia!
