Just putting this out there. Do any of you RANGER boat owners have Smart Tabs on your boat? If so what problem were you having and was it resolved with tabs?

Go back put to the main page and scroll down to the Ranger page. Someone on there will be able to answer your question.
Guy in the mercury 4 stroke page that has a Ranger intercostal with tabs on it.
I just talked with my Ranger Dealer and he mentioned that Gambler put them on as you said. So far this is exactly what I had heard from a Ranger 185 owner. This fisherman said he will never own another boat without them. He said you won't regret putting them on
My Ranger dealer mentioned that inter-coastal fishermen with 20- 22' used tabs alot. Rough water etc. He is suggesting I put tabs on only as a last resort but he agrees it would most likely resolve issue. He is working with me and trying not to spend more $$ or add more weight to stern.
One thing to remember.... Gambler trim tabs systems are built into the hull. The actuators are plumbed inside the hull. I would try to fix it with a different prop first. With the after market install the actuators are mounted outside of the hull. There will be some added weight also.
Agreed. Ranger dealer said same
Thank you
