trim tabs

[chart]

i am looking for tabs for my cudy with a bracket probably Bennett m120 sport tabs. what do the other tab users use and do you have a picture of your mounting. Do you like your tabs or would you do it differently if you had a choice. thnxs for any info.

Here is my M120 installation. I have had it for one season and I am very happy with it. I wasn't originally going to get the rocker switch with the LED indicator lights but I'm really glad I did. I'm a stickler for weight distribution so they really help with balance - but at the same time, if I had it to do over again, I would put the hydraulic pump closer to the centerline of the boat. I now have it just about as far aft and to starboard as it can go and I will probably move it inward a bit when I redo the wiring.

nice setup thanx for the pics. Does the m120 seem to be plenty big enough? They almost look small in the pics.

I have never run a V20 with any other model of tabs but the M120s seem more than adequate. I have never extended them more than about about 60% to get the ride I wanted. I usually run them around 30%.

i run m120s too, usually run them 50-60%... wish they were bigger.

mind you im way stern heavy. 350mag and a bravo1 drive, dual type 31 batteries, kicker, downriggers etc etc

might add that i have the autoretracting, with indicators (EIC) package.

ive been through 4 relays in 2 years... still have issues with not going down or up on one side or the other
id avoid the eic model

I disabled auto retracting. Seems easier to let them be most of the time..
