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 SX series incorporates all of the fully automatic features of our popular SMART TABS, in addition to the rust and corrosion-free benefits of molded composite materials. Assembly can be completed in seconds, and the installation in a few minutes. The only tools required are a drill with a 3/16 bit and a Phillips screwdriver. SMART TABS SX provide unequaled performance and durability with no maintenance in fresh or salt water. The system can be specifically tuned to maximize the performance of any power boat, and TRACKING RIBS have been added to improve handling at higher speeds.
Our 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.
SPEED REGULATION
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 speeds
Improve 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 SX series offers a sophisticated, fully automatic trim tab solution designed to enhance the performance and handling of small to mid-sized boats ranging from 12 to 16 feet with 40 to 80 horsepower engines. Crafted from durable composite materials, these trim tabs are resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting reliability in both freshwater and saltwater environments. Installation is straightforward, requiring only a drill with a 3/16 inch bit, a Phillips screwdriver, and minimal assembly time, making it accessible for both DIY enthusiasts and professional installers. The system*s design eliminates the need for hydraulic lines or electric switches, providing a maintenance-free operation that adjusts automatically based on boat load and speed. The nitrogen gas actuator delivers lift at the stern during acceleration, helping to reduce planning speed by up to 33%, improve acceleration, and increase top speed. The trim tabs also feature tracking ribs to enhance handling at higher speeds and maintain stability during turns, crossing waves, or cruising at maximum speeds. The internal valve system dampens minor water pressure fluctuations to ensure smooth, undetectable adjustments, resulting in a more comfortable and level ride at all speeds. Additionally, the trim tabs help improve fuel efficiency and safety by maintaining optimal boat attitude without operator intervention. Whether for recreational outings, fishing, or water sports, these automatic trim tabs are designed to provide superior performance, stability, and durability with no ongoing maintenance required. Backed by a satisfaction guarantee, they are an ideal upgrade for boaters seeking enhanced control and efficiency on the water.
