Place Diverter/ Merc Trim system

[Beausy27]

I live on a small lake, lake St. Clair. About 20 miles by 20 miles. The porpoising on my boat when we are out for a nice relaxing ride drove me nuts. I had researched the merc trim system from placediverter.com and finally decided to bite the bullet and spend the almost 800.00. OMG. Wish I would have done it way sooner. Has made the boat ride way more enjoyable in calm and rough waters.

Easy install too. It took me about 3 hrs., and I was hungover from the night before,lol. The boat was on a lift in the lake but I do suggest putting it on the trailer to do it.

I have one too and I wouldn't want my boat if I didn't have it. I have never heard of someone who bought one and was later sorry. I have had to replace the hydraulic cylinders after several years of use. The pivet point at the black bar wore out. They now have bearings at that point so they should last longer.
