Default Finally got the Tabs on

I finaly found the time to install the Trim Tabs on the V. Might get out next week and check out the Improvement before heading Salmon fishing. I ran the wire through an existing hole saving at least two more I have to drill bellow the H2O line.

22 Brand new holes that might be why it took me a year to put the tabs on. I used two tubes of 3M 5200 got that sh!t all over the place but I think it's sealed good.
I have spent all day and I don't have power to the rocker switch. I think the Brain might be F*&%ed.
They look nice any way.

Glad to see you got them on--You will love them and wonder why you did not do them sooner (Damn the holes).

I have the Lenco's as well--I just drilled thru the hole at the top mount for the wires and then 5200 the mount--that way no wires hanging out even.

Did you hook up the auto retract?? I did--it is nice.

You did a nice job--now get out there and test them!!!

Do not have any real good shots of the tabs--but you can see em--

You'll enjoy the performance - big improvent - just a bit of down tab greatly reduces pounding in a chop.

Genie Aye I didn't conect the retractor wire I have the LED indicator switch and had to conect it to get power. It's all good now just need to test them out. I was going to drill the hole for the cable and hide the main cable but I all ready one on either side. I just couldn't drill two more in my tub. Now to get one of them fancy four strokes like you got.

Bgreen I can't wait to check the new ride last year out on the big blue my Dad tried to pass me in his 21' NorthWest Jet. My sidekick said WTF dose he think he's trying to do I think he is going to try and pass you. He was POUNDING through the chop we laughed and took off on him. At the cleaning station he finaly admited that my O'l WellCraft is a better ocean boat than his. They will make a good ride BETTER.

Do not mistake that for a 4 stroke--that is a 2 stroke, and love it.

besides that is a nice yammie--those are where the Yamaha reputation came from.
