1972 20' Seacraft 2' chop video

Do you have performance numbers throughout the range?
I'm considering a DF140, but may want more power, considering all the modifications/weight I've added.

Nice. From what I've seen, not much video around showing ride characteristics of original 21' ........23's.........and older 25's in real chop..... 3' + waves.

Your boat zipping right across on plane, steady ride.

I find most V - deeper V rigs of 20'-23' run fine in 1', and 2' chop.
The pounding really starts with 3' tight chop.......and true 4' chop is where the differences REALLY show.

I run a Wellcraft V21.......very average ride bow into a 3' chop, BUT with the trim tabs, I can run on plane into tight waves with a real nice ride, using the cutting edge of bow and flare to run easily, and actually passing other boats in the same size that either don't have tabs or don't know how to best trim engine in, and tabs down.

SeaCraft having some legendary hulls, it would be great to see more video's in choppy seas !
Thanks for posting.
