I have recently purchased a 2005 model Haines Signature 542F dlx. fitted with a DF140 Suzuki . I have begun to fit it out with a few items . Two things i am interested in fitting to it are:

QL TRIM TABS. I like the look of these trim tabs and have spoken to another Haines owner who has them and reckons they are fantastic. I am wondering if anyone has installed them to a 542F and maybe able to offer some advise on installation and performance. The boat does find it hard to get on the plane when fully loaded.

ANCHOR WINCH. I am also wanting to install an anchor winch . I am looking at the LEWMAR PROFISH 700. The boat doesnt have any where curently to install and i will need to come up with something to be able to carry this out . Again if anyone has done this then any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Shane
