Smart Tabs Outperform Manual Trim Tabs
Nauticus trim tabs simply provide performance that you WILL NOT GET from any other trim tab brand! Why? Nauticus trim tabs are always reacting to the movements and speed variations of your boat. The manually adjusting trim tabs are stable until you physically adjust them. And let's face it, you need to work about safely operating your boat and not about making constant adjustments to your trim tabs. These Nauticus trim tabs are truly "SMART". The biggest mistake you can make with trim tabs is purchasing another brand.
Here's how they work:
The nitrogen gas actuators provide 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. Nauticus tabs start in a downward angle 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. Even when cruising Nauticus trim tabs continue to work like shock absorbers. The constant adjustment to sea conditions allow Nauticus trim tabs to provide remarkable stability in turns, while crossing waves, cruising, and running at maximum speeds. No more sliding, porpoising, or chine walking. The dampen reaction of the actuators senses changes in water pressure to provide smooth and undetectable reaction changes.
Nauticus vs. Other Brands:
While most other trim tabs offer increased performance, Nauticus offers key advantages over competitive brands. The first is the relative ease of installation. Smart tabs can be installed by the average boater in less than an hour using simple tools (screwdriver, wrench, and a drill). Each easily mounts to either side of the transom with attachment hardware included in the box. Other brands require complicated installation typically taking 4 hours that should be performed by experienced technicians.
The other key advantage of Nauticus trim tabs is that they are fully automatic. Once installed and adjusted, they do not require any operator control while underway. With other brands, the boater must constantly adjust the tab settings using manual switches according to how the boat is driven. Nauticus trim tabs eliminate the potential problems that manual trim tabs may have if improperly adjusted.
Independent Test Results:
Nauticus smart trim tabs have been tested by numerous publications and boat manufacturers. Each time the results were the same - a huge improvement in all performance aspects. From small inflatable boats to 9 meter cruisers and greatly improve performance every time.

NEW Smart Tabs SX composite series
The patented SMART TABS are a one of the kind trim and stabilizer system that automatically adjusts to the sea conditions, without the needed for expensive electric or hydraulic hardware and switches. The system constantly reacts to the water conditions, boat speed, and balance providing a remarkable improvements on any boat. provide un-equaled 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.
Trim Tabs vs Hydrofoils:
There simply is no comparison. Trim tabs self adjust independently according to how you run your boat. They set on either side of your motor and provide excellent stability. With hydrofoils, they are a fixed mount on your motor and can not physically provide the same performance because they provide only one point of balance in middle. Not to mention, hydrofoils cause unnecessary strain on your transom.
Here's how they work:
The nitrogen gas actuators provide 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. Nauticus trim tabs start in a downward angle to maximize lift at slow speeds.

Hustler High Performance Propellers
Mid-Range & High Performance Series
40 - 300 hp w/ 4-1/4" & 4-3/4" gearcases
They incorporate designs that boost a boat's overall performance. Not all boat propellers are created equal. In fact, Hustler Aluminum Propellers are the best performing props available. In some cases, this prop will outperform a stainless steel propeller!
Turning Point's Hustler High Performance Series aluminum propellers now feature the newly designed MasterGuard Hub System. Created specifically to give boats a higher top-end speed, better handling, a faster hole shot and more efficiency, Hustler propellers maximize overall performance. These props incorporate the same high performance designs found in stainless steel props to give boaters a less expensive way to gain stainless steel-like performance.
The High Performance Series is designed for all engines ranging from 40 hp to 300 hp with 4-1/4" to 4-3/4" gearcases. The interchangeable hub allows boaters to save money on future prop purchases, since spare or different pitched propellers don't require another hub purchase.
Turning Point recommends that every boat have a spare propeller onboard to insure a day on the water isn't ruined by a broken prop or to allow for adjustments in different situations. Using a prop 2" in pitch less makes a big difference when more people are onboard or the boat is being used for watersports. The smaller pitch helps offset the added weight and drag on the motor and increases performance under these circumstances.
