Trim Tabs for 2005 Challenger 180SE

[winstontod]

I've read it before somewhere on these forums, but this boat and it's design needs to have trim tabs. I've had 11 boats in my life from 18ft. to 40ft. and trim tabs are a god send in the ocean, lake, or whereever the sea state changes. The porpoising on this boat is ridiculous, but I can't find a manufacturer that makes a tab that will fit this boat (the transom has very little flat vertical space to attach a convention tab; not Lenco, not Bennett, or anyone else as far as I can tell. I ordered the SmartTabs as they seem like they will fit, but I'm sceptical about how effective they will be. Anyone tried these, or any other trim tab setup for this boat............I love it, but if I wanted to bounce up and down all day I would have bought a horse.

Thanks guys,

Tod

If you find something that works, definitely post it up.

Otherwise, I'm working on duplicating the original BRP accessory trim tabs. Check out this thread:
