    Just Ordered Smart Tabs

    Greetings :) <br /><br />I just ordered a set of Smart Tabs for my 17 Sundance Skiff CC. The boat has a 50hp Johnson and really plows the bow at low RPMs and has a tough time getting up on plane. I will post a follow-up after getting them installed to tell about how they perform.

    Test Sail

    Nicked wire on trigger

    Long story short, I overheated my '77 85hp Johnson, and tore it down. New rings and gaskets and reassembled....no spark. I don't have the tools needed to test the electrical system (My background is automotive, not marine) so swapped some parts off an old motor that a friend had. Swapped...
