    I would really like to hear from a couple of 41 owners about the following sea handling of the boat. Please do not blow this thread up with your opinions that came from second hand knowledge or from reading a post somewhere else.
    My normal offshore runs will put me in a quater following sea for the trip home. Right now my 40 Open will run home in a 3 to 5 on autopilot with no excessive bowsteer . She is wet but the ride is good.
    I do not normally head out in a 3 to 5 but we all get stuck in it from time to time.
    Thanks

    I am really surprised that no one has responded to this. I am glad that this forum isn't comprised of bashers that had a friend that knew a guy, Just hoping to get some first hand feedback as to her overall ride/handling.

    I trim the bow up a bit and the handling is fine.

    We have owned a 41 for about a year now. So far the boat has performed well. I did add the ZipWake tabs and I feel they have helped alot

    Did you leave the existing trim tabs or remove them? Glad to hear the Zip Wakes perform.
