Spend some time on the sponson design. Thy like to trip up in race water.To narrow and cut into the wakes in the corner.
Need anti trip angles on the sponsons. The smaller boats are fine nice and lite and say on top in lite chop. but get a big one in big race water and it is a whole different beast.

There is some truth to what you have said......but what you have deduced as to the cause of the tripping problem is not correct......so called non-trip angles have nothing to do with JAE's tripping......
Rod please expain then what the boat is actually "tripping" on if it's not the 90 degree vertical sides. I have run many hydros over the years and have seen how angled non trip sponsons "slide" from "inadequate" turn fins. With that being said the one thing I have seen with the JAE's is they do not slide, if the turn fin is not right they roll over, period. Not at all trying to be confrontational but rather have an answer when I get asked the same questions by others. :blink:
