Thanks for the info I have contacted them and am waiting for a reply, but it seems they don't have a mounting bracket for their turn fin according to the web page, what bracket did you use?

Most people probably just make their own bracket. Pretty simple with some aluminum stock. I made 2 fin's identical to the ul-1 style, they work great but might be a little small for the popeye. The ML fin looks very nice. I may have to order one myself.

Ul-1 comes with a bracket and kintec makes an upgraded bracket. Just not sure what fins would fit the Kintec one, I could make one not sure where to get the aluminum stock from.

You could get the kintec upgrade bracket and the macomb turn fin, just drill a couple new holes if need be

I used a UL-1 Turn Fin. It is thin and had a bunch of bend in it. I made a brace for it. There is an aluminum plate glassed inside the boat to spread the load out.
