I am trying to install some 22 inch Bennett trim tabs and my transom curves inward at about the 14 inch mark to the point that there is roughly 3/4 of an inch gap by the time I hit the end of the tabs. Bennett strongly recommended I dont downsize to the 12 inch but rather make a shim.
The didnt give much more help on what to use for the shim.
My local boat shop wont install them because they will not make a shim.
Can anyone recommend a good material to make the shim out of. I have access to a professional wood shop and so if it is something that can be cut using wood related saws that would be great.
I need the starting block to be 3 inches wide and around 12 inches long with a depth of probably 1 inch to start with.
Any recommendations are appreciated.
