For little investment, you might also try one of the following first. *I

Yes, sometimes known as a Doel-Fin or similar. *They are a lot less
expensive than trim tabs and very easy to install. *That's what I'd

Been there Wayne. But then again, now that I think about it. This is a
different trim set up than what I'm really used to. On my small boat I
have the trim control right on the throttle handle where this Marquis
has the Morris throttle set up with the trim buttons on the dash. kind
of awkward but I suppose thats how it is. This might take a bit of
getting used to on positioning the lower.
