I have noted at the boat shows that BT has been using HUGE long tabs on the boats over the last few years. If the hull has gotten better, why the need for bigger tabs?

Not trying to stir the pot, just making an observation and don't understand the reasoning.

As you can see BT owners are a pretty happy bunch. I have met and talked to many in the last three years since we have had one. I have met people with old and new and NO one has the complaints you asked about or boatless Buddy O O claims to be so aware of. Not sure why he feels the need, but he bad mouths BT every chance he can. Could it be that he is/was a Nortech dealer, also I am not sure why he changed his name from Wiggler. Below is another thread he started just to bad mouth the brand. I love our BT and I also like Nortech but I will never buy one from a dealer that feels he has to tear apart the competition with unproven statements.

How do you figure that stating facts based on personnal experiences with the product is bad mouthing, as stated there are even owners on here that have experienced similar problems and concerns. I changed my sign name because my dog who's name was wiggler passed away, if you really need to know. I'm not a Nortech dealer, and do own a Nortech. Again as Stated I do like the Black Thunder and I'm sure Bob will work out the handling situation. I spoke many Rep's for BT about putting bravos on their boats and they also agreed the boat was too much boat for the drive,I have spoke with him and his son who I gave some advice to about attending Mizzou as I did. So just relax

Buddy OO,(Jim Darr), Wiggler 4400

I would think that you would finally get over the BT bashing. It is non-stop everyone knows who you are and nobody respects your opinion.
