O woe is me.Lost one of my bennett trim tabs last week and am having to get one made up locally. Problem is the hinge type.Anybody aware as to what it looks like or maybe the general shape of the perishing thing.Only other option is to get down into the gloopy mud and take the other one off.The hinge thing basically appears to consist of a strip of metal welded to trim tab proper approx 16" long about 2" high with some sort of 90 degree bend at top to fit into bracket on stern.
