I am going to order my smart tabs today or tomorrow and I noticed that there are some available that have cosmetic blemishes. what does this mean. are they scratched? If so how will this affect the corrosion resistance in saltwater? any help?

They are stainless, I wouldn't think the blemishes would cause any negative saltwater effects.

I bought some blemished Smart Tabs and could never find the blemish. My entire boat has blemishes so I figured blemished tabs would be a good match.

Note: Salt Water use requires Sacrificial Zincs mounted to the trim plates
From their installation manual . . .

Silly question, do you go by the hull length or he horsepower is there is a conflict? My boat is 16.5 ft with a 90 hp motor.

In todays world "id run away from BLEM" Not so with this mfg, I'd doubt that you would find any fault with his product............ Very unusal.
