    Swept, just like any other single engine application. More skeg and tab built in.

    Swept works better more area and the factory sporty swept skeg is .200” thicker at the root then strait skeg so it should be stronger.

    With that said I’m running a strait skeg left hand sporty with a jb weld stick torque tab been 114mph with a 30p so far it handles just fine. It’s weird that everything is backwards it’s hard to turn right instead of left.
