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

Enhance your boat's performance and handling with the Lectrotab Smart Tab SX Composite Trim Tabs designed for 18-20 foot boats powered by 150 to 240 horsepower engines. Crafted from corrosion-resistant molded composite materials, these fully automatic trim tabs provide seamless operation without the need for manual adjustments, ensuring consistent optimal performance in both fresh and saltwater environments. The quick installation process requires only a drill with a 3/16 inch bit, a Phillips screwdriver, and a few minutes—making it accessible for DIY enthusiasts and professional installers alike.
Built with advanced technology, the Smart Tab SX system features a nitrogen gas actuator that automatically adjusts lift at the stern during acceleration, significantly reducing planning time by up to 33%. As your boat gains speed, the trim plates lift to reduce bow rise, improving overall speed and fuel efficiency while maintaining a level and comfortable ride. The system's internal valve dampens minor water pressure fluctuations, delivering smooth, undetectable reactions that enhance ride quality at all speeds.
The inclusion of tracking ribs improves handling at higher speeds, providing remarkable stability during turns, waves, and cruising. The trim tabs' self-adjusting nature means they adapt to boat load and maneuvering, eliminating the need for operator intervention during operation. This automatic adjustment promotes safer, more efficient boating by enhancing handling, safety, and comfort across diverse sea conditions.
Designed for ease of use, the Smart Tab SX requires no hydraulic lines or electric switches, reducing maintenance and potential failure points. All mounting hardware, templates, and instructions are included, ensuring a straightforward installation process that can typically be completed in under an hour. Once installed, maintenance is minimal, and the system continues to provide reliable, high-performance operation for years to come.
