Trim Tab Size

csvencer · #1 04-06-2009, 09:29 AM

I just did a quick search and found a bunch of tab threads but not a single one talks about what size everyone is installing. Are you guys going with the 10x12 or the 9x12 or even the 8x10 Bennett's? Reel - What size where the ones you just put in? I am interested to see if I could get by with the 8x10 M80 Bennett's they have but not sure it will be enough tab. Any thoughts...

How much tab are you using to get the bow to come down? Are you just tapping the controls or are you using a good portion of the range of motion on them? Trying to get an idea on how much tab I need.

Also for anyone that has a swim platform check out the QL's that won't interfere with the platform.

My tabs actually measure 8 x 12 ...and I believe they'll be ample for this size boat..if I can ever get 'em to water and try 'em out
