New tabs..Well, Old Tabs

[reelapeelin]

My favorite supplier, Coastal Spareparts V20 Supply, sent me a set of trim tabs the other day...I like 'em but they were a bit too wide IMHO for a V20...18" wide had me concerned "Nose Down" could easily turn onto "DIVE"...



So whipped out the old jig saw and went to work...cut 'em down to 12" so now they're 8 X 12s which I think are better suited to a V20...plus by cuttin' 'em down, I don't have to relocate the transducer...



Then came the brackets...they got these funny lil tabs of their own that hold the tabs in place, so had to replicate those...



Just a lil short cut w/the saw and squeeze w/the vice-grips was all it took...

So now they're all cut down, ready to go, my favorite past time, drilling fiberglass is next...maybe tomorrow...
