Thanks Hawgty55, that's a beautiful boat you have, the lines of that Cole are incredible. I understand what you are saying. Being on top of the waves at say 55-60 with the tabs adjusted right is much smoother, that's how my Checkmate was. That's What kind of power do you have. The one maxed out marine has is a 502, what kind of top end are we talking?

I have no idea of the history of the hull and deck on the 25 Cole in the video, but dam after seeing that video the hull and deck look just like an Eliminator 25' Eagle. I have one and our closest lake is large and has tons of boat traffic on it year round. From commercial fishing rigs to ferries. It doesnt handle bigger chop / rollers very well at all.

nice looking boat, but it was built well after cole closed his shop. i heard cole gave his blessing to have his name on it, but it wasnt built by him or his guys. so to an aficionado its not a true cole.

Yes mine is set up the same way. Bennet tabs and a 502 currently. Run a 22 when im going to jave a boat load and 24 pitch when its just the family both will run like every other 502/496 68mph boat handles great and wont skip or blow out in turns darn near no matter what speed you make them.
