Strut placement info needed

[Dr Hydro]

I have a 38 in Youngblood mono with the built in trim tabs and the pad on the bottom. Should I run the strut bottom parallel with the keel or the pad? Thanks, Jim

HMMMMM, good question. I'd start parallel with the keel. PArallel with the pad may make it nose light.
