Trim Tabs


Trim Tabs make your boat ride smoother, safetier & faster whether on small boats or large yachts. They give a more comfortable ride. 
When bow rides high and the stern drags in the water, normally you trim the outdrive down just to bring the bow down. This reduces boat speed and increases fuel consumption. If you just adjust the tabs to maximize boat speed and level, the outdrive could be adjusted and you will get the propeller shaft parallel to giving you thrust.
What to choose? hydraulic or electric? Electric trim tabs feature immediate response and used to be cheaper compared to typical hydraulics. Also installation is really, more simple. Hydraulic actuators normally last longer because the hydraulic unit is installed inside the boat in a dry environment and the seal is made inside the cylinder where barnacle can't arrive.
