Tab and actuator installation
WARNING!
• Read the instructions thoroughly before beginning the installation.
• Before drilling holes in the hull, check that there is nothing in the hull
that might be damaged, such as fuel or water tanks, electrical
wiring, hydraulic steering hoses, etc.
3.1
Planning
When deciding where to mount the tabs, there are several things to consider. Be
sure you have considered all these items and perform a test fit before drilling any
holes in the hull.
• The outboard edge of the tab should be inboard 1"-4" (25-100 mm) from the
chine. The further outboard the tab, the more effective it is for controlling the
side-to-side level of the boat.
• The edges of the tab should be at least 2" (51 mm) from a hull strake, if possible.
• To avoid interference with the engine, the tab must be at least 8" (205 mm)
from the drive centerline.
