The thing that is so great on this sight is the sharing everyone does.
Example: Ask for prop advise and information comes flowing in...plus if anyone has an extra prop they are willing to loan out. In my case 76red18 and blue heron. BH had a prop that he sent out and now I am waiting for the UPS man to show.
Anyway while waiting I thought what a good time to get my Trim Blades installed.
Over the past years I have Bennett hydraulic and Lenco electric SS/tabs. Both worked well. However when I saw the review on the Volvo Tabs, I thought why not. The main reason is I just don't like the big SS/tabs hanging out the back. Never seem like a clean install (that's just me AR).
Anyway the Volvo tabs where pretty basic to install and instructions where easy to follow. Nice templates and wiring . Control panel is easy to use after getting to know there sequence. Plus they have an option that you can hook up to your gps that automatically adjusts the tabs as you are running.

Before drilling holes this is a must have tool...You have to be at right angles to your transom or nothing will be fit right. With 11 holes per side being off a little is not an option.

The back end all buttoned up and ready to go.
Hopefully the testing on the prop will happen sometime this week...If not after the holiday. No way I am going to be on the water in a Stealth Boat with all the FWP out this weekend.
