Does a flatback need tabs for anything else besides load leveling?  The '68 I'm reworking did not have tabs. I'm not closing the transom or putting a bracket on it

A "flattie", in it's original configuration, does not need tabs due to the inherant stern lift of a flat bottomed hull.  Oh course, we are taliking about smaller, lighter weight motors here.  Throw on a heavier V6, a porta bracket or JP, and enclosed transom...quite the different animal, and tabs become desirable...
