Installation Notes:

This Sea Doo Uptopia 205 has a very unique transom that makes fitting some standard trim tabs difficult. Because of this, Bennett Marine developed a custom trim tab designed specifically for this hull. The 10 x 12 inch trim planes fit well between the chine and the exhuast, leaving enough room to mount transducers on each side of the jet drive. The transom has sponsons on each side of the jet drive that limit the vertical space available for actuator placement. To accomodate for this design feature, the actuators are angled back and mounted to the underside of the sponsons.

Sea Trial Results:

"I have to say that putting Bennett Trim Tabs on my boat has given me a whole new boat. Now, when I get in chopped up water, instead of porpoising all over the place and getting beat to death as we pound the waves, I just click in a few degress of bow down and the ride smooths right out."
