I placed the nauticus pro troll smart tabs on my 2012 starweld pro 18. This helped with the porpoise issue gave us a better hole shot and added about 3mph to the top end. These trim tabs also have a trolling mode where you can put them full down working like a trolling back was able to use that to slow the boat down to 1.5 mph. I've never had any steering issues. Towne marine was where we purchased it and haven't had any unresolved issues. we did subsequently purchase a kicker motor which had some challenge doing the install due to the trim tabs. I was able to finally get a kicker mount that worked out the issues. This needed a change in the control cables and Towne Marine shipped out replacements with no problem. Hope you get the issues sorted out if you would like pics of the trim tab setup let me know. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

gave it a shot this morning with some waves breaking over the side of the cute we decided to try again later today winds are supposed to die down some. Just didn't think it would be that fun. Some of the bigger boats came back in as well. Good luck to those that give it a go! Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app

Last year my swr saved one of my downrigger rods after a king ripped it out of the rod holder. I saw it sinking down and quickly circled the boat and one hook from the spoon on the swr had hooked the line. Kudos to the wife for alerting me about the rod going over too!

your welcome, you can also use spro micro swivels and tie that to the lead core (remove 6- 8 inches of lead from lead core before tying knot to swivel) this makes it easier to change your leader without cutting up your lead core. Since they are small they will go through the level wind on most reels. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Lake Ontario United mobile app
