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

Upgrade your boat's performance with the Lectrotab Smart Tab Trim Tabs designed specifically for 10 to 12-foot boats with 8 to 18 horsepower engines. These innovative trim tabs automatically adjust to changing load and sea conditions, providing a smoother, more stable ride without the need for manual intervention. The nitrogen gas actuator ensures optimal lift at the stern during acceleration, effectively reducing planning speed by up to 33% and enhancing overall handling. This results in faster acceleration, higher top speeds, and improved fuel efficiency, making your boating experience safer and more enjoyable.
Constructed without hydraulic systems or electric switches, the Lectrotab Smart Tabs are entirely self-regulating. As your boat accelerates, the trim plates automatically lift to reduce bow rise, then level out to minimize drag once maximum lift is achieved. The speed-regulated system initiates with downward-angled plates at slow speeds for maximum lift and automatically moves to a horizontal position at higher speeds, ensuring a seamless transition for optimal performance.
Beyond speed and acceleration benefits, these trim tabs act as stabilizers, functioning like shock absorbers to maintain boat balance across various sea conditions. Whether navigating through choppy waves or making sharp turns, you’ll notice less sliding, porpoising, or chine walking, resulting in a more comfortable and controlled ride. The smart internal valve system dampens minor water pressure fluctuations, providing smooth, undetectable adjustments that keep your boat level and steady.
Installation is straightforward, requiring only basic tools such as a drill, screwdriver, and wrenches. All necessary hardware, instructions, and templates are included, allowing most boat owners or professional installers to complete the setup in less than an hour without the need for through-hull drilling. Designed for durability and ease of use, the Lectrotab Smart Tabs are an excellent upgrade that enhances your boat’s handling, safety, and fuel economy while offering a level of convenience unmatched by manual trim systems.
