Trim tabs are a great addition to any size and style of boat, meant to improve its performance, fuel efficiency, and safety. These are metal or composite plates mounted on either side of the transom that can be raised or lowered to change the boat’s running angle. Under acceleration, the bow rises and the stern is pushed down, making it harder to control your vessel and reducing visibility. Trim tabs help keep the bow down and stern up so that your boat can get on plane faster, at lower speeds. The port and starboard tabs can be controlled individually, so you can address the listing issue.
Planing helps reduce or eliminate porpoising for better handling, and reducing on-plane RPMs means greater fuel savings. Enjoy these benefits with the boat trim tabs that we source from brand names boaters trust, including but not limited to Lenco Marine, Bennett, and Nauticus. Choosing the right plate size comes down to the type, length, and weight of your vessel, its weight distribution, the motor it’s equipped with, etc. Smaller boats typically feature trim tabs that automatically adapt to sea conditions. Hydraulic trim tabs are time-tested, reliable, and durable systems that are easy to maintain. Their electric counterparts are an easy-to-install alternative that is ideal for vessels where space is at a premium.
