Hi

My boat (17ft runabout 140 johnson) cruises along on a plain too fast. If i slow down it bogs down. Would a whale tale or something similar help?

cheers

We put a stingray on our 17 ft deep V glass boat and it no longer boggs down when you drop below 3500 rpm. On those days when it's too rough to get up and bogey you can cruise along at 2500 - 3000 RPM in comfort.

You had me going for a bit there Mikeed. I thought a 'Whale Tale' was the top/back part of a G-string that sometimes shows on some of the more adventurous young chicks. ;D
