How are trim tabs used?

In waves, trim tabs are adjusted slightly down by pressing Bow Down on both switches. This brings the bow down while you maintain speed. This adjustment helps the hull absorb the impact of the waves, resulting in smoother and more efficient boating. In waves, trim tabs should be fully up by pressing Bow Up on the switches. The trim tabs will help lift the stern so the bow does not dig into the waves.

In side wind, trim tabs are adjusted down on the leeward side by pressing Bow Down on the windward side until the boat is level, reducing spray and giving a more comfortable ride.

In side weight, trim tabs are adjusted down on the side with the weight by pressing Bow Down on the weighted side until the boat is level, reducing spray and giving a more comfortable ride.

On takeoff, trim tabs are adjusted fully down by pressing Bow Down on both sides. This gives the stern more lift and lowers the bow of the boat; when you increase throttle, the speed increases and you adjust the trim by pressing Bow Up on both switches until the trim feels right.

Safety while the boat is underway: trim tabs must be used with caution, as they have a major effect on the boat’s stability.
