Product Description

Enhance your boating experience with the Smart Tab SX Composite Trim Tabs, designed specifically for 12-16’ boats with 40-80HP engines. These black trim tabs are engineered to boost your boat's performance, ensuring smoother rides and increased efficiency whether you're cruising or accelerating.

Key Features

Automatic Performance Adjustment

Say goodbye to manual adjustments. The Smart Tab SX automatically self-adjusts based on your boat's loading and maneuvering, providing optimal performance without any operator intervention. This intelligent system ensures that your trim tabs respond seamlessly to changing conditions, enhancing stability and handling.

Durable Composite Construction

Constructed from molded composite materials, the SX series trim tabs are rust and corrosion-resistant, making them ideal for both fresh and saltwater environments. This durable construction ensures longevity and consistent performance, reducing the need for maintenance and replacements.

Enhanced Boat Performance

  • Reduced Minimum Planning Speed: Decrease your boat's minimum planning speed by up to 33%, allowing for quicker takeoffs and improved maneuverability.
  • Faster Acceleration: Experience quicker response times and acceleration, getting you on the water faster.
  • Increased Top Speed: Achieve higher top speeds with reduced drag and improved hydrodynamics.
  • More Comfortable Rides: Enjoy a level and stable ride at lower speeds, minimizing the effects of waves and choppy waters.
  • Improved Fuel Economy: Optimize fuel consumption through enhanced handling and reduced resistance.
  • Enhanced Safety: Better handling and stability contribute to a safer boating experience.

Speed Regulation

The Smart Tab SX trim tabs begin at a downward angle to maximize lift at slow speeds, aiding in quick planing. As your boat accelerates, water pressure naturally lifts the trim plates to a horizontal position, eliminating drag and maintaining efficiency at higher speeds.

Boat Stabilization

These trim tabs act as stabilizers, continuously adjusting to sea conditions to provide exceptional stability during turns, wave crossings, cruising, and high-speed operations. This reduces unwanted movements such as sliding, porpoising, and chine walking, ensuring a smooth and controlled ride.

Easy Installation

Installing the Smart Tab SX is straightforward and hassle-free. With just a drill, a 3/16" bit, a Phillips screwdriver, and two wrenches, most users can complete the installation in under an hour. Professional installers can typically install the trim tabs in 30 minutes or less. All necessary mounting hardware, instructions, and templates are included, and installation does not require any through-hull drilling.
