Hello,

I am thinking of putting some Smart tabs or SX Smart tabs on my 2006 175 SX Glastron, it has the 4.3 litre engine in it.

Has anyone here installed them on this model and year of boat? My concern is will the tabs interfere with the operation of the ladder?

I may have to move the transducer on my side scan Humminbird, but hopefully this will be no biggy.

A guy at the lake has a boat (same model) 2 years older than mine and his transom is different than mine so it seems to be year specific. I am going to take some photos and measurements next time I get to the lake, but if someone else here has insalled them with no problems then I would like to have the tabs in my sweaty little palms the next time I go to the lake!!

Thanks,
Calvi

Yes,

I sure hope they will fit my boat, no more pulling the kids at 25 mph on the tubes, nice slow(under 17mph) evening cruises, and best of all 2 or 3 more mph for a measly hundred bucks!! Oh yea and better fuel economy too!

I cannot comment on the fit to your boat and clearance but I can say that it will be the best money you have ever spent, they do work and they do everything advertised.
