Bracket backing plate for Bennett trim tab HPU. I wanted to be able to mount it above the starboard fuel tank, for super-efficient use of space -- but this meant I would not be able to lift off the lid. I also wanted to use Weld Mount studs to mount it to the hull side. So I made a Starboard backing plate (the yellow material) and mounted Bennett's HPU bracket to it (black). Now instead of lifting the lid from the HPU (which is not something that is done often), I instead take the yellow plate off the hull side and then move the HPU to where I can take the lid off. I made the two sets of Weld Mount studs different lengths so that it would be easier to get the yellow plate in place (sort of like how two rudder pintles are different lengths).
