    "Wanted" Checkmate Trim Tabs

    Thread Bump!!! Sending out an SOS!!! If anyone has a set they want to sell let me know. I've engaged several sellers on Craigslist who are selling boats that have the genuine trim tabs on there and these are the outcomes: *They've already sold the tabs *Unwilling or don't have the time/tools...

    Where do you float your boat? Pics please!

    Desert Aire & Crescent Bar both located in WA USA. Both areas are situated on the Columbia River in the Priest & Wanapum Reservoirs respectively.

    "Wanted" Checkmate Trim Tabs

    West Coast That's my big problem. If I lived in MI, OH, NY, or any state in between I would seriously be road-tripping to every old boatyard to try to pull the tabs off of some old scow 'mate. I live on the northwest corner of the country and it is no man's land for Checkmates. Plenty of Jolly...

    "Wanted" Checkmate Trim Tabs

    Another bump!! So I pretty much have given up all hope on finding a genuine set. HOWEVER.....:) If any of you have them and want to part with them PM me. I will make a generous offer which you can always refuse.

    Want new boat and its not a Checkmate

    Very cool! It's my dream to someday purchase some lake front property. My MX-13 would be very happy living next to a beautiful Washington lake.

    "Wanted" Checkmate Trim Tabs

    Hard to find! I've been scouring the interwebs forever. "Genuine" Checkmate tabs have to be the most sought after part out there. Giving this thread a bump in case any fellow members have any leader or perhaps one of you might be willing to part with their tabs. I keep searching!

    MX-13 on the Columbia River

    Finally have a couple pictures of her in the water. This was August 7th. The last linked picture is kind of pixelated but cool nonetheless. It's been a great summer for boating in Washington but bad for forest fires. Enjoy! http://1drv.ms/1WQdiwk http://1drv.ms/1KKbmMP http://1drv.ms/1WQdrQo...

    "Wanted" Checkmate Trim Tabs

    No luck still? I haven't contacted him yet. Maybe he's only interested in getting rid of the whole boat and doesn't want to deal with removing the tabs.

    1970 Checkmate MX-14

    After 9 whirlwind months (starting in Fall 2010) I thought I had mine ready for Spring 2011. Boy was I wrong...it took 3 more years, much bulging of forehead, beers, moral support, throwing a choke solenoid in anger 50 yards, 2 girlfriends, and some encouragement from Viper and this forum to...
