    Yes you can.
    A turn fin on this hulls also helps to be stable on straights.

      So do you mean I should mount them more inboard with the right hand side inside the rudder mount so they are symmetric. Cause I obviously can't mount the left side where the hole is...

        For the left side we usually mount a carbon piece and on it we put the fin.
        What do you mean "inboard"?

          Put the right fin on the chine line, not inboard of the rudder! Monos turn best to the right anyway, mount the left fin as far out towards the chine as you can without blocking the flood chamber.

            By inboard I meant to the left of the rudder on the chine line. The point I was making was that if I mounted the right hand turn fin in the same place in relation to where the left one is to the keel, that's where it would end up! If I put the right hand one in the correct place, ie right of the rudder and the left hand one to the right of the drainage hole wouldn't this cause an imbalance as its not symmetrical!

              No no inboard.
              Place them out as Fluid says and similar to the rudder.
              This way fins helps to keep straight line.

                  If your hull is steped then trim tabs won't do.

                    It's not stepped.

                      What trim tabs do you order for it ?
                      How big is that boat L x W x and H of transom at deadrise ?
                      Looks like just some small adjustable ones will do the job for it.
