Good Evening
We have a 1999 Sundowner 205 with a 5.0 Volvo Penta GL,
We are looking for some advice on fitting some trim tabs, we have come to this conclusion after 2 years boating in which we have found the 205 to be quite stern heavy and at low speeds, the rear of the hull digs in a great amount sending the nose very high. Unfortunately a throttle increase means it goes above the speed limit and the area we boat, they do not take kindly to speeders!!
We have come across the Bennett M120 Sport system, which seems to fit the bill quite nicely in terms of size and installation ease. Does anybody have any views on this system or where to mount it on the boat in terms of lateral width wise? We would also be fitting the EIC5000 electronic indicator system with it.
We would be fitting zinc anodes to them to stop corrosion as we boat in salt water.
Thanks
Rob
