At near-maximum speed and lightly loaded, planing boats acquire their greatest possible running attitude. The boat will begin to settle towards the stern, or "squat," as it slows from top speed. By adding people, fuel, and gear, weight can be varied to extremes. Uneven weight distribution makes the boat more difficult to control, making it harder to come upon a plane, and almost always causes some listing to port or starboard. Trim tabs are beneficial to both large and small boats because they swiftly pull the vessel out of the hole and onto the plane, correct for uneven weight distribution, and increase speed, safety, and overall boat performance. Trim tabs can help a boat stay on a plane and perform best at intermediate speeds.
Key Features:
-
Trim tabs boost speed, minimize pounding, and in some cases, they can even correct listing, eliminate porpoising, and offset prop torque.
-
Reduce your fuel usage, your engine's effort, and your squatting.
-
Improve visibility, hull stress, and handling by reducing the amount of the wake.
