I was also wondering what's a good starting length on a trim tab
 
I know ZERO about jets. I know a little about Smart Tabs. (Trim tabs) if that is what you are asking about.

I guess if I were going to build my own ( I won't)...I'd just look at their website and take down the suggested sizes for various boats and horsepowers.

When I bought my first pair, I screwed up on the size of the gas struts. They (Nauticus)... the manufacturer swapped them out for me at no cost.

on jet skis they have ride plates engineered at the precise degree that provides lift to the back of the boat to eliminate porposing youll have to design one i had the same issue so dont get discouraged,there are alot of guys on here who come up with different solutions that work well almost every time , i have pictures of my on my rhino jet build post if you need any more info just contact me, hope my pics help
 
So pics of the layout of my boat I have the ride plate on it I'm not sure that it's on the right angle cause that a differnt nozzle the motor is 3 cylinder 1000 tigershark motor besides that just the gas tank and a battery in the back

I was going to build a seat n live well onto my center consle think that passenger weight would balance it out. I want to put the gas tank and battery up fornt but my whole front deck it sub framed in with foam pods so I be a pain to cut it open
 
If I cant get it the thing right I was going to down size the motor thinking about getting a seadoo n actually putting part of the hull in it so everything is right. I made everything out of aluminum on mine boat. 1/4 throttle almost 30mph Im so close to getting it right I wanna know how it will go. I want to whole build thread on my boat sence it's my frist time and not know if it even work I was going to wait intill I had it right. I dI'd want to point other in the wrong way
