just wanted to share my stupidity with everyone. I have been rushing to try and finish my complete bottom job and have the boat in the water april 1st. After a long day of frustrating work i decided to take off the trim tabs. bad idea, should have waited until i was mentally 100%.
Long story short, after breaking off nearly all the screw heads, one good finger injury, a minor gel coat boo boo and lots of frustration later I got both tabs off. Today when i was mentally there, i realized the screws went through the hull and had nuts on the inside. wow. I never claimed to be a genius.......
