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 9 x 8 are designed specifically for 13 to 15-foot boats equipped with 30 to 40 horsepower engines. Featuring advanced automatic self-adjusting technology, these trim tabs optimize your boat's performance without the need for manual intervention. The nitrogen gas actuator provides lift at the stern during acceleration, helping to reduce planning speed by up to 33%, enhance acceleration, and increase top speed. This results in a more efficient, stable, and comfortable ride across various sea conditions. The system's speed-regulated operation ensures that the trim plates start at a downward angle for maximum lift at slow speeds and automatically move to a horizontal position as water pressure increases, minimizing drag and improving fuel economy. The internal valve system dampens minor water pressure variations, delivering smooth adjustments that enhance handling and stability. Nauticus trim tabs eliminate the need for hydraulics or electric switches, simplifying installation and maintenance. They work as effective boat stabilizers, maintaining stability during turns, crossing waves, and cruising at maximum speeds, reducing issues like porpoising and chine walking. Installation is straightforward, requiring only basic tools such as a drill, screwdriver, and wrenches, with all necessary hardware, templates, and instructions included. The design avoids through-hull drilling, making it suitable for a wide range of boat hulls. Whether you are looking to improve safety, handling, or fuel efficiency, the Lectrotab Smart Tabs deliver a reliable, high-performance solution that enhances your boating experience with minimal effort and maximum results.
