I have a 2003 Sea Ray 225 Weekender. After adding a 6 hp 4 stroke trolling engine to the rear of the swim platform I now recognize a real need for trim tabs!
Without the aux motor on the platform the boat has always labored to get on plane but with the additional 60 lbs that far aft it seems to have compounded the problem. This is a trailer boat and pampered garage queen always used in fresh water. I'm thinking the electric tabs over hydraulic. What size Bennett
tabs would you recommend for my boat??

Contact Bennett directly. They are very helpful. Best thing I put on my boat. Make sure to buy the auto switch.
 
He has contacted Bennett right here :)

I would recommend 12 x 12 and agree with going with our BOLT Electric system. Do you have a photo of your transom with the platform you can post?
