| Ask the question on Ausfish.. There is a member there called Chimo whos owns a Vagabond and is let up with lenco trim tabs.. There are also a few Victory owners that are fitted with tabs also.. Some are fitted that have cut into the duck boards, and some have fitted without cutting into them.. The Vaga, and Victory share the same transom so what works on the Victory will work on the Vaga, (how they are fitted I mean)... |

The Vag/Victory doesn't have the same transom - quite different !
Mate PM me your email and I'll send you the photos of the proper set-up as done by SEAFARER - Lindsay Fry. |

P.S. follow the fit-up in the photos otherwise you'll stuff your hull.
Best way to fit them is the bigger arm with the cut-out through the duckboard - just run some 'glass covers over the arms and sikaflex edges. |

My apologies for the misinformation.

Victory also had the options of twins. They look very similar but I have never seen them side by side to compare.
Ocean Spirit, tabs certainly have to be installed correctly and there really isn't a lot to it, provided they are sealed correctly how would they stuff the hull? |
