The swim platform is gonna be a problem. Did ya look at the install info provided by Lenco? The 12"x9" tabs have the mounting surface of the actuator at 13" I believe which your platform will be in the way of. The 12"x12" tabs are really the low-profile ones that will fit under our platforms. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Another option is to notch the platform.

Crap hopefully it fits its the 9 x 12 Lenco Edge Mount Boat Trim Tab Kit #15014-101 Model I picked up

The LENCO TT9x12ENS Edge Mount trim tab kits are designed to be used on transoms that have limited mounting space. They only require approximately 11" of height from the bottom of the transom which makes them ideal for boats with swim platforms. They provide instant response from electric actuators for precise control. Everything is fully submersible, maintenance free, and sealed for life. 12-gauge stainless steel trim tab planes and hinges will hold up to any sea conditions. High impact corrosion proof mounts, will look great through years of abuse. For 16' to 22' boats

You gonna love'm.
We have the Lenco's on the Rosborough. The lighted switch is sweet. Great when conditions change like when you need to retract the tabs because of following seas/rear 1/4 ing etc. I quick look at the lighted tab indicator we tell you if the tabs are down etc.

Skool, anytime you feel like the dust is getting too thick on those Bennetts just let me know. I'm sure we can work out a deal that would be satisfactory to both of us.

Mack I'm afraid Dan's gonna be right re that swim platform...and with the way the ladder retracts into it, notching it out might not be an option...

Here's the way I did mine on the 74...



And had to do same on the 21...



I still have the swim platform shown on the 74 in case you can use it...

Good luck w/it and let us know what happens...but whatever you gotta do to get a set of tabs on, it'll be worth it fo sho!!
