Does anyone have any information about west coast products? Like catalogs or other general info? I have a westcoast trim tab kit for my 95 xp that I’m looking for more info on
 
What do you want to know? Out of business for a long time. You want to run the trim tabs but never the middle rideplate extension, that is about it.
 
They only mount one way. Smooth side towards the water, rounded corners away from the pump.
 
I think mikidymac and myself are picturing a different item than what you are talking about. I am referring to the trim tabs on the bottom sides of the hull. Sometimes they are called hull extensions or trim tabs.
Here is a photo . Could you upload a photo of what you have?

Gotcha, Im gonna work on trying to track you down some info. I could be wrong but Im not sure what you have is made by westcoast. Typically their logo looked like this, again I could be wrong but im going to do some digging1674443141368.png
 
I can barely find any info. Westcoast also made fixed trim tabs or hull extensions as well. My thought is that these may bolt into position and stay in a fixed position. Obviously you could adjust them to rider preference and performance by switching which holes you have the bolts in. Here is a page from Rossier Racing's part catalog for Seadoo that has a trim kit. 1674444990312.jpeg
 
Ok, what you have are technically trim tabs but they were quick turn tabs.
Sorry but they serve no purpose unless you are racing on a buoy course. You are also missing the handlebar lever, cable and actuator. Basically in a race you would be running wide open to a turn then just before the turn you would pull the handlebar lever that would drop the trim tabs and bury the nose of the ski so it would stick the turn around the buoy then let go of the lever and get back on the gas.

For recreational riding they are pointless, just get regular fixed trim tabs.
