The boat I just purchased has Televator trim tabs and one actuator is leaking. Initially I thought the tabs were Bennett and I purchased a new Bennett actuator only to find out that although they are similar in appearence it was the wrong actuator.
Upon researching the Televator trim tabs, actuators or any parts for that matter are obsolete. So the question is, what exactly do I have to purchase to convert my current tabs to Bennett? Initally I didn't want to fill in old screw holes in my hull and start from scratch but it looks like I have to. Keeping the old plates intact, I guess I am going to have to retrofit the Bennett actuators to the Televator plates and then purchase separately a new pump, switch & actuators....is that about it?
Sounds costly but what else can one do :huh:
