550 Savage Cobia: “With the collar … no worries!!”
I took the boat out for sea trials in Morton Bay with a strong South easterly at about 20 knots the sea was about 600 to 700 mm chop and I travelled straight in to it. Normally I would have to slow down so I would not have the spray into my face!! With the collar … no worries!!
At 25 klm per hour not a problem at all, even when the sets were at about 3 meters apart. On the way back with the sea behind and following, not a problem, 30 klm no worries.
My boat is approx 17 foot, however since I installed the collar it feels like it is a 20 foot boat!! I am a retired Plumber, and I believe you should always thank people if you can, and if a product is good you should praise the product. I think this is a brilliant concept that has made my boat almost unsinkable and made my boat a better boat.

How was the stability at rest
I’ve installed these on my custom 5.17m centre console. I’ve had the pleasure of 80 odd hrs F70 running 13 1/2 x 15 Yamah k sesies prop.
Just traveled on the Big Blue Wobbly thing from South West Cape to Cockle Creek. Monday 17th. I left at 9 and arrived at the whale at 12
The collars balance the boat beautifully in all kinds, and essentially lift the bow and deflect when you hit a hole. Life Saver!!!
I don’t even believe where this boat has taken me. The Kapten mod was the best thing I could do.
