Steve Karbownik just installed Bennett M120 Trim Tabs on his 2010 Sea Ray 230 Select. He did a great job and we have posted his installation on our Project Boats page. To read more you can go here http://www.bennetttrimtabs.com/viewprojectboat.php?vID=483
Here are a few highlights;
"All I can say is Wow!! I knew the tabs would make a difference but they were even BETTER than I imagined -- they are very precise and make the boat react with very little movement. They performed flawlessly. This boat performs 100% better -- I can now get up on plane and stay there at 2600 RPM without lugging the engine. I could even stay up at lower RPM but found that 2700 to 2800 was just about right for economical cruising. At that RPM I am burning around a very respectful 6.4 gallons per hour and going about 22 MPH. Before I intstalled the tabs I had to keep the engine around 3200 to 3300 to get it to level. Thats about 400 RPM more than I can do now with the Bennetts!!!!! Thats a BIG difference. There is NO DOUBT that Bennetts are just as important to boat performance as tilt and trim on the engine. I am tickled pink with the way these installed on a very dynamic stern and am even more impressed with what they did for this boat and I am extremly pleased with the excellent customer service provided by Bennett Marine."
