Hydrostream Trim tabs

Post: # 20106Post rev.ronnie »

Reproduction trim tabs. Standard size and 1"x1" larger for bigger hulls.

$20 a pair plus shipping.

I'm selling these at material and bending cost. I am just trying to help out some fellow boaters with what I think is one of the critical hull items for safety and handling on the HS hulls. I have a bit of time in this undertaking as well as pulling in a favor on all the water jet work.

S&F dumped my ad and I'm ready to scrap them all. I've had enough of trying to help people and getting $hit on.

Don't ask me a million questions on how to mount them or what they do. Sorry, I'm really not in the charitable mood anymore.

Hey Ronnie, I'll take a pair for my Viper. You were kind enough to send me photos of the mounting some time ago, so won't need to ask. Your efforts on the project are much appreciated and I'm happy to help a HS brother out. I can pay with my paypal account if you like.
Thank you
Joe

It's 5052 H32 aluminum. The strongest plate that will still tolerate bending without fracture.

I like to drill then and use a 100° countersink. A # 10 or 12 screw to match the chamfer really holds them for keeps. The factory didn't do this. My originals pulled loose. Not anymore.
