Default Thoughts on Bennett trim tabs

Looking to put a set of tabs on my 21' Apache scout. My mechanic says for the dollar these will do me great. Any thoughts or suggestions. Thanks

Bennet makes a good product and the tech support is real good as well. I have them on my 26' Scarab and they seem to function well for me. I think they are a good product for boats 26' and smaller with moderate to small horse power, if you were in a larger boat I would go with Diamond's or K-planes. What your mechanic told is right, good bang for the buck. Get the Bennets with the twin rams.

I have the HD16 with dual rams. Several leak issues that Bennett handled quickly at no charge. If you read the literature there is a speed limit of 70 mph. I have been satisfied with the product along with the customer support.

I wouldn't hesitate to use the Bennetts on that size boat.
