Oh well, I'm pleading junior member.

My Bennetts are 17 years old and still working perfectly. When I had a 1998 Regal 2100 LSR, I was planning to install Bennett M120s on it, but I bought a different boat before made the upgrade. I think they would be a great choice for you. Lenco tabs are also popular and have a good reputation. Smart tabs may have the desired effect for much less money, but are not adjustable on the fly.
Your boat has the same David Livingston hull design as mine and I am very confident it will respond astoundingly well to the technique I started this thread with. If you can get that extremely fine-entry bow down so that it pierces the waves, the boat should ride much much more smoothly.
