Tabs on 20SF w/ 200 HPDI - Size & lenco vs bennett

[captj2]

I just installed Bennett M120's on my 1978 20"/ 200 hp Merc. and could not be happier. The installation was quick and simple and the control is amazing. We ran the boat 150 miles in the keys on the first trip with the tabs and I am sold.

There is no reason to be concerned with the hydraulics. I mounted the pump in the CC well away from any possibility of contact with salt water and mounted the tabs a bit outboard of what Bennett recommends. Check out Capt.Brad's installation photos

The hydraulic lines were easy to snake through the bilge to the cc. I am not familiar with the Lencos but I do not trust electric motors in that close contact with salt water. I can tell you that the customer service from Bennett is the greatest. They maintain a presence as TABMAN on another forum and supplied me with extended hydraulic lines and a surface mount for the pump without charge. They even paid for the shipping!!!

No I don't work for Bennett but when you find a product this good and a company this supportive, they deserve recognition.
