New Parkers wearing LARGER trim tabs?

[DaleH]

Anyone confirm? Hearing rumors Parker 'finally'started putting wider trim tabs on their larger hulls. Any boat shows around people can check?

Can't confirm although it would be a great idea. An EVEN BETTER idea would be to go to Bennett tabs, IMO. Waaay more user friendly, absolutely bullet-proof and parts available readily (HAH, lol, I've had maybe 8 boats w/Bannett tabs- always workd perfect Had to replace a tab that was swiss-cheesed due to electrolysis once though. Ordered tab thru Worst Marine as I recall[back when they were cool and had reasonable prices...])

I went to the New England boat show this past sun.
Same old tabs on all Parkers !

Maybe someone is listening. :wink:
I hope the rumor is true.

Turns out there were Lenco 12" chord by 18" width tabs on the 28' at the Boston boat show. I think if I had the hull I'd have 30x9 or 30x12 tabs on it.

That is a a great start! Gotta give the factory credit for that.

At least we still have the option of deleting the factory tabs, and installing whatever we want by ourselves after delivery. :wink:

Choice is good!
