New to me boat and I love it

Post by cody0707 »

She is an older boat with plenty of life left in her. 1992 Sea Squirt 17 with a 2002 Johnson 90. I am going to add a Bennett Self leveling tab system. Does anyone have any experience with these. Manual tabs would have been nice but the budget didn't allow it at this time.

I put Smart Tabs on a 22’ ski boat. They do a great job keeping the bow down on a budget.
