All The Trimmings

Has anyone in the BCP done or know of some who has added a 180/185 style rubber trim to a 170.

Re: All The Trimmings

About the only time I use the rudder trim in my 185 is after changing from floats to wheels ect.

Needs more right rudder on floats or skis for whatever reason.

Ah man, thanks for the catch but now you have me considering abrasion boots as well, I'll have a look in the IPC. Cheers

Abrasion boots are a great addition on any of these machines. Not so much on floats, but certainly on wheels/skis.
