Re: Trim Tab Use
she already has a bow mounted electric trolling motor .... the decision about adding an outboard trolling motor will be made after we install the trim tabs and test them .... my hope is lowering them all the way down will produce sufficient resistance while trolling using the big motor to slow the boat down sufficiently .... if so, that would be wonderful ... if not, the next step will be to figure out the best way to install an E-TEC 15hp

If you are still installing a trolling motor I assume you've figured out any conflicts between the tabs and that motor? Can you bow-mount an electric?
