Don't have the actuators mounted yet but the tabs are 12x12 Bennett edge mounts with Bolt electric actuators running the Bennett auto trim pro controller and switch.

Thanks. I have same bracket on my 23 and have not yet purchased tabs. I have seen many different installs, and hoping to keep it simple. I will probably go with same.

Dang Ken, that looks mighty tasty, however I see one minor issue that could be easily corrected. There are six spaces between the plated shrimp that would fit six more of those tasty looking shellfish or blackened scallops to kick it up a notch! (I'll admit it, I'm a pig!) I'm thinking Mel had no problems with that dinner!!

Classic prep work there.
Not the americanizzzed version.

Dash looks sweet!
Nice control placement.
Boca switches?

Ken-Amazing food! Helm station looks excellent.

Thanks Sandy not too many people appreciate nor care about taking the time and effort to put together a classic pasta dish the way it is was intended to be until they taste it. I use to always serve it with the sunny side yolk on top but Mel prefers I toss it in the pasta prior to plating.

Yes, the switches are Bocatech in a custom panel put together by International Marine.

17 hours spent this weekend wiring and I'm probably close to half way. The auto pilot took a good half a day. It's the simple stuff that takes so long to get done if you do it it right. 7 straight hours behind the helm wiring in 90 degrees sucks!

As she sits I could fill her with gas and go for a ride but there is just too much left to do to be distracted by the want to get back on the water. It does however keep me motivated.

Looking through some old pics and found one showing how far forward the windshield was prior to the mod....

For comparison... Hope to get her out of the shed for more pics this weekend.
