Going to go with electric, cheaper and slightly easier to install, the rams are from Lectrotab same ones in the pic im about to post, as well the tabs i made are based off this design, going to test them out when i get them on the boat and see if they bend.. if they do ohh well it dosnt take long to make these things if i had to remake/alter them.
