Thanks for the Video-looks like a great design! I just recently starting looking for a style like this, pretty much in this order: from C-Dory, to Rosborough, to SeaSport... If I purchase one it will probably depend on price and availability either the 2200, or 2400... hopefully. Thanks again
Hello Michael, I hope you love these boats as much as I do. Yes I think you are right, what has worked well for me is to reduce speed. with the drive and tabs down staying between 17 and 20 mph seems to mitigate the tracking issues. At higher speeds the trim tabs are best used as a leveling tool, and the drive should come up a bit as well of course, but it seems its always dependent on sea condition. I am so impressed at what they can handle if the drive trim and tabs are optimized for the conditions, but I have had 4 seaports, so I am a bit biased I would say.
Yeah I think I've found the same thing. I don't bring any tab in until I'm already well trimmed on the drive. I also find adding weight to the nose helps a lot with overall ride quality and lets me run the drive at a more neutral angle. Great boats.
Hi Daniel, I like your videos alot. I have a 2200 as well, year 200, and I boat from Anacortes to the islands often. Do you find with the tabs and drive down like this that it bow steers too much?
Were you there? They are bigger than that, the camera always makes it look smaller. Theses are amazing boats, I don't know of anything better for these conditions other than a bigger Sea Sport.

That place looks familiar. SE Alaska for sure. Gravina!
Nice.
