Thanks David.Hello Greg, The tub should be flat or parallel when sitting on the 3 riding surfaces. You do not want the tub looking "down hill". Its OK if the tub is looking slightly "up hill" but no more than 1/16".

Paul, Yes it should help if yours is having a problem staying hooked up on the straights. The first 45 boat was designed with a 3 degree ski. The prototype 45 had a 3 degree ski and it was heat racing at 85 mph with an 1860 octura. The biggest problem with the first 45 was it was about 3 seconds faster than the driver, when that boat was headed down the back straight I was still at buoy 2, LOL. If your boat is staying hooked up in the straights I wouldn't change it.Does this mod to the ski also concern the first design (the 2010 edition) of the JAE45?
I would not change ANYTHING without talking directly to the people that build the JAE...they are very easy to talk to and will walk you through any problem you may have. If the boat that is doing 85+ is catching and flipping,sounds like you might want to get a David Prusse turn fin. I have them on all my JAE's...they work great in chop,even with gas boats that run at our pond. Hope you try giving them a call.So while you guys are talking about the ski what is this im hearing about the outside sponson catching and flipping the JAEs at high
speeds . Every one that are doing 85+ are having this problem it seems are we going to angle the Skis also . Im looking at a 101
single JAE and the outside sponson is going to be rounded or beviled like the eagles crapshooter and others . So whats up sounds like the next step also thanks Charlie
