[QUOTE="PSG-1, post: 225418, member: 6937"] You could probably use a Teleflex push-pull cable if you wanted the trim tabs adjustable. Then a simple lever and pivot mechanism to operate it, possibly even rigged to a foot pedal. Thought about doing this on my boat, too, as it did want to porpoise a little bit at WOT. I corrected that by removing my ride plate, and giving it a slight downward kick on the last inch or so, by using my metal brake and making a very slight bend. That eliminated the porpoising, but again, I'd like to have it adjustable, so, I may change the design again at some point, and have a push-pull cable like I mentioned. [/QUOTE]
