Curious to how much insulation you had to trim on the fish boxes. I tried to get the 6.5 JLs to fit and it just wasn’t working after trimming some.

I have a 94’ Seafarer 226 and recently decided to add a Fusion radio and 2x sets of speakers. Both are 6.5”. I plan on mounting one pair to the precut access ports beside the storage boxes/livewell facing aft. The others pair I am not sure about and looking for suggestions. The boat has a...

Need to replace the thru-hull fittings at the water line on my 94’ seafarer 226. Any idea what size they care?

Would there be a benefit of going with a 24x9 vs 18x12?

Yes, 24x9 would fit. Seams larger than what I need however. "As a general rule for boats with max speeds of 40MPH, choose at least one inch of trim tab span (per side) for every foot of boat length. For example, a 22′ boat would use a 24”x9”." This was found under Bennetts general guidelines...

Want to add trim tabs this year while the boat is out of the water this year. Looking for recommendations on what trim tab size to go with. Going to go with Bennett classic hydraulic style. Bennett recommends 24x9 I believe.

Perfect. Thanks for the help. I'll check the seals to see if anything is leaking and bleed the system if everything checks out. I'll clean the solenoids while I am at it.

1994 seafarer 226 with a 200hp Yamaha Saltwater Series II outboard. Last season the trim up/down started to work intermittently. It would hesitate for about 5 seconds and you can hear the pump before functioning. After about 5 seconds, it works. Marina said that when they pulled it that the trim...

I like the idea of a higher weight rating and the under stow ladder.

I have a 94’ Seafare 226 and would like to add a swim platform on the port side. Anyone have any recommendations?

DennisG01 - explained it perfectly. I think the auto feature is nice but just not for me now that I understand it. I rather adjust it base off conditions each time rather than when it was programed and hope its acceptable for those conditions that day.

Thanks for that video Glacierbaze. That cleared up everything. My only other question is once I have it set to auto will the system adjust to different sea conditions and additional weight changes? This is all at plane, I understand the trim tabs do nothing at slower speeds.

Im refering to the auto trim pro from Bennett. Per one of their reps on another form, he described it as once the boat is on plane that is when the auto functioning takes control. After you get out of the hole and adjust it to your preference then it will auto adjust based off that. That is how...

I like the idea of the autos, but after reading up on them It seams like the auto function only works after you get on plane not out of the hole. It just holds your setting to what you set after it’s on plane. Maybe I’m wrong but that is how I took it. With that being said - rather save the...

I understand. Dedicated a good bit of time researching them. I need to measure the span this spring to actually see how big of a tab I can fit.

Any pro vs con between the electric actuators and hydraulic?

Thanks guys. Now to reach out to Bennett and see what size they recommend.

Thanks for clarifying. So it will help with the boat leaning to one side or the other while at speed? One of my passengers (mother-in-law) is a bit on the heavier side so each time she sits on the boat or moves it causes the boat to lean to one side and is not as enjoyable to take out.It's a...

My 94’ seafarer did not come with trim tabs and am looking into adding Bennett tabs, preferable ones with the autotrim controls. Has anyone added them and seen an improvement? Main reason I’m looking into them is to lessen roll while trolling and moving around the boat along with improvement of...

I used sea-tow once so far…because I forgot to fill my 2-stroke oil tank about 10 miles from the marina. They were super helpful and was never charged because it came with my insurance policy. That being said - after that happened I re-read my policy and it only covered a few miles. I purchased...
