Default Bennett Electric or Lenco Trim Tabs

I have a 1988 20' SF and want to put trim tabs on it. Which Brand do people like best and trying to figure out if i need the limited space ones since i have the teak swim ladder on the port side transom. I feel like ideal i'd put the 12x12 tabs on. Is that correct? Any advice is appreciated. Thank You

As time goes on I expect the electric Bennett's prove to be as dependable as their originals, plus add in their customer service I'd go with Bennett's.

Some trim tab info at the end of this thread.

I have had a set of Bennett Bolts on my flats boat for 3 or so years with zero issues. I have had lencos on a few different boats and never made it 12months without having to replacing an actuator.

Yes Sir I'm with ya. I found a marine store in Bryan, TX that had the best price on the Lenco actuators I had on my Pathfinder. I kept them in my "favorites" to save me time, then I just figured I'd buy two at a time to save me wasted effort.

Being a nice guy Mr. dalaamma, not sure if this is a good price or not. Your's to research.

If it wasn't you, they're already sold.
