Smart Tab Trim Tabs 9" X 8" for 12'-16' Boats with 40-80 HPIf these trim tabs don't provide you with an outstanding performance increase, contact us within 30 days of your purchase.Why buy a manually adjusting trim tab set when you can get the automatic trim tabs that will self-adjust and perform better for less money?The breakthrough technology in trim tabs is completely automatic, requiring no operator adjustment while underway. Nauticus trim tabs self adjust according to how you load and maneuver your boat.The nitrogen Gas Actuator provides LIFT at the stern of the boat by holding the trim plate down during acceleration. The amount of LIFT is determined by the actuator load rating and the trim plate adjustment, which is done at the time of installation.
Reduce the minimum planning speed by up to 33%
Faster Acceleration
Increase top speed
Provide a level, more comfortable ride at lower speeds
Improve fuel economy, handling, and safety
NO HYDRAULICS - NO ELECTRIC SWITCHESNauticus trim tabs are completely automatic requiring no operator adjustment while underway. The nitrogen Gas Actuator provides LIFT at the stern of the boat by holding the trim plate down during acceleration. The amount of LIFT is determined by the actuator load rating and the trim plate adjustment, which is done at the time of installation.(see installation instruction).SPEED REGULATEDNauticus trim tabs start in a downward angel to maximize lift at slow speeds. As the boat accelerates, the water pushes up on the trim plates providing lift to the stern which minimizes bow rise, and allows the boat to plane quickly.Once the water pressure exceeds the actuator load rating (maximum lift) the trim plates move up to a horizontal position eliminating any drag.BOAT STABILIZERSEven when cruising SMART TABS continue to work like shock absorbers. The constant adjustment to sea conditions allow SMART TABS to provide remarkable stability in turns, while crossing waves, while cruising, and while running at maximum speeds. No more sliding, porpoising, or chine walking.ONE OF A KINDThe unique system is the only one of its kind in the industry. The internal valve system is truly "smart" in its design of controlling you boats performance. It will reduce the minimum planning speed by 33%Provide a level, more comfortable ride at lower speedsImprove economy, handling and safety.As the boat speed increases, the water pressure also increases. Once the water pressure exceeds the Actuator load rating (maximum LIFT period) the trim plates begin to move upward until they are horizontal with the bottom of the boat.The internal valve system dampens the trim plate movement which eliminates any instant reaction to minor water pressure variances. Nauticus trim tabs provide smooth and undetectable reaction to boat speed creating a level, more comfortable ride at lower speeds.INSTALLATION IS SIMPLEWith an electric drill, small drill bit, a phillips screwdriver, and two wrenches, just about anyone can install SMART TABS in less than an hour. Professional installers should be able to install SMART TABS in 30 minutes or less.*All mounting hardware, instructions, and templates are included.*SMART TABS require NO THROUGH HULL DRILLINGThis product may not be returned to the original point of purchase.

General guidelines for choosing a trim tab size:In general, the widest span tabs that will fit on the transom will be the most effective. The greater the surface area, the greater the lift. We‘ll typically recommend a 9” chord tab, but depending on available transom space a shorter or longer chord tab, or specially shaped tabs with upfins or dropfins may be advised.As a general rule for boats with max speeds of 40MPH, choose at least one inch of trim tab span (per side) for every foot of boat length. For example, a 22′ boat would use a 24”x9”.For speeds 40MPH and over, we’ll generally point you to one of our Performance, or Premier Line high-performance systems.This product may not be returned to the original point of purchase.

BOLT 12x9 Electric Trim Tab System - Control Switch Required Electric Trim Tab Systems For Trailered BoatsBoaters can enjoy a durable and reliable electric trim tab system designed for 17-28 foot boats. Bennett Marine invented the electric trim tab in 1960, and now Bennett leads the way with an electric trim tab system designed to outperform and outlast any electric system on the market.Compared to other electric systems using old technologies designed over twenty years ago, the BOLT Electric combines cutting-edge technology with a robust and water-tight actuator. This new "Superior by Design" technology resolves the issues that older systems have with breaking apart and water intrusion caused by design flaws and marine growth.While we strongly recommend hydraulic trim tabs for most applications, electric trim tab systems are suitable for:
Trailered boats from 17-28 feet
Single actuator use, due to the inability to synchronize two electric actuators on the same tab
Features:
Wires are concealed and protected through the upper hinge - there are no exposed wires to the marine environment
Robust, water-tight black nylon actuator provides trouble-free operation
Main seal located high to protect against marine growth and water intrusion failures
Quieter than any other system on the market - No more scaring the fish away!
Installation is fast - no need to disassemble parts of the actuator
