Default Re: Tabs on 20SF w/ 200 HPDI - Size & lenco vs ben

I have used both brands, currently using Lenco's which were a lot easier to install, but I have only 1 season on them. The M120's on my last boat worked very well.

I would recommend mounting the trailing edge higher than the 5/8" (or whatever the number is) that is recommended in the directions. I find that going down swell it is nice to have them fully retracted, and always felt that the stock setting did not allow enough clearance for this. I would go with 3/4-1" of negative trim at installation.

By contrast, it also seems like you never put them down very much with that hull, so adjustment range will not be a problem.
