I know of several boats with hydraulic that never get used. I ask, don't you use the tabs? they say "Eh...I don't even know if they work" or "the left one sticks sometimes and ...eh...too much hassle remembering if they are up or down" or "what are tabs?". Nobody I know,who has them on their boat, uses them except you guys on this site.

I saw the brackets for raising the Smart tabs. thats a must.

I figure I'll smash em on the dock first time out, trying to back in with a cranking cross-tide and wind...so I might as well go cheap.

A handful of screws from the outside and done... I think I just talked myself in...
My old Striper road like crap before I put tabs on it. I would face to constantly have people move around to keep the boat from listing when underway, tabs changed that. The first few times I had my wellcraft out i didn't have tabs and I really missed them. I have lencos, but it lives on a trailer so I don't really worry too much about them.
Hopefully the smart tabs workout for you.
