B. mentioned noise w/ the leencos-he is correct they make noise
However, most adjusting is done on the move or just before --moot point on scaring fish
Unless bennets have changed, they are nothing but trouble....... pumps go bad and leaks and hoses and on on
Leencos work and when and if actuator goes bad you pull two pins and relace it w/ a new one
no fuss no muss
Just my experience
after almost 20yrs in the marine biz :
the amount of problems with bennet tabs has been few and far between - i believe i've replaced 3 mabey 4 cylinders,and a few hydraulic units - due to their mounting in a poor location - seawater draining from the deck onto them....
lenco tabs - in the last 3 seasons,i've replaced approx 10-12 actuators,2 switches and the tab control unit - this was under warranty still...
pretty big difference huh ?
pull the pins and pop a new one on ? what about the harness ? remember that ? in some applications,this is a pretty involved process...
purchase what you may,i know,i would never own a boat with lenco tabs...
