Has anyone installed trim tabs on a 20' horizon? Is there any need? I'm not sure there is even any space for them.

The need: depends. I've considered installing them on my 170 Freedom. The boat is real sensative to load when it comes to riding level. It bothers me to see the bow leaning to starboard when I'm out by myself. When I have a couple of adults on board, I have had to shift people around.

As to the ablility, sure you can or should be able to. I'd give Bennett Marine a call and discuss with them. They are a great company and will get you what you need. There customer service is one of the best.

I installed Bennette m120 tabs and position indicators on my 220 horizon. They are awsom period. Well worth the money. No more leaning boat, slower planing speeds and being able to keep the nose down in rough water for a better ride,quicker out of the hole. :D

Where did you install your tabs -- I assume as close as you could get to the sponsoms -- ( large extended hull area after true running surface)
Could you post a pix ?????

I have tabs from my old cuddy cabin I am getting ready to adopt to my 240 Horizon --

thx
