Thumbs up

Can't wait to hear how your Bennets work out as I plan on doing the same by spring. My V came with a set of Smart Tabs that I recently removed while doing a transom clean up and bottom stripping. Good luck with your install

Thanks, it's really not a " normal thing " to drill 3/4" holes in the transom, but .........it's just a transom !!! ha

I had M120's on my V, probably the best mod you can do. Congrats.

1. Tabs: All checks out so I've moved on to the rest of my projects.
2. GPS: New power cord for the standard horizon GPS / Plotter fixed that problem.
3. Digital antenna: installed
4. Gunnel rod holders - port and starboard - fixed where the plastic had cracked at the corner.
5. Replaced raw water wash down fitting
More to follow.........
