I have a 1990 Saltare that is mostly used for boating rather than skiing. My understanding is the scags provide stability for skiing especially in the turns, the boat will not side slip. However when operating the boat in very tight confinement the agility of the boat is significantly compromised. While at an antique boat show of Chris Craft's, Century's, Riva's and Streblows all the boats exhibited a high degree of maneuverability, nearly pivoting in place. By removing the scags will the maneuverability of the saltare improve? May be not to the degree of the Woody's but better than it is today? Your thoughts
