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 SWITCHES
Nauticus 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 REGULATED
Nauticus 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 STABILIZERS
Even 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 KIND
The 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 SIMPLE
With 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 DRILLING
The Lectrotab Smart Tab Trim Tabs are designed to enhance the performance and stability of small to medium-sized boats ranging from 12 to 16 feet, equipped with 40 to 80 horsepower engines. These automatic trim tabs feature advanced technology that allows for self-adjustment during operation, eliminating the need for manual adjustments and providing a smoother, more efficient ride. The innovative nitrogen gas actuator applies lift at the stern during acceleration, helping to reduce planning speed by up to 33%, improve acceleration, and increase top speed. This results in better handling, fuel economy, and safety on the water.
Constructed without hydraulic components or electric switches, the Nauticus Smart Tabs operate purely on internal valve technology that responds seamlessly to changing water conditions. As the boat accelerates, water pressure increases, prompting the trim plates to adjust automatically for optimal performance. At slower speeds, the plates are angled downward to maximize lift, ensuring quick planing and reduced bow rise. Once the pressure exceeds the actuator’s load rating, the plates move to a horizontal position, minimizing drag and maintaining efficiency. Additionally, the system provides remarkable stability during turns, crossing waves, and cruising, acting like shock absorbers to prevent sliding, porpoising, or chine walking.
Installation of the Lectrotab Smart Tabs is straightforward and can typically be completed within an hour using basic hand tools. All necessary mounting hardware, templates, and instructions are included, and the design requires no through-hull drilling, making it suitable for DIY installation or professional setup. Lightweight and durable, these trim tabs are engineered to provide consistent, smooth reactions to changing boat speeds and sea conditions, ensuring a comfortable and stable ride at all times.
