Trim Tabs
The trim tabs may be used to
help keep your boat level at
cruising speeds.
The trim tabs are controlled by
two rocker switches at each
helm station.
Before using the trim tab rocker
switches, read and understand
the trim tab operation manual
included in your yacht’s
owner’s packet.
When cruising speed is reached:
• The port or starboard trim switch may be used (one at a time) to level the boat.
• Perform trim tab adjustment with several short touches to the switch rather than
one long one.
• After each short touch allow several seconds for the hull to react.
LOSS OF CONTROL HAZARD!
Improper use of trim tabs will cause loss of control!
• Do not allow anyone unfamiliar with trim tabs to use them.
• Do not use trim tabs in a following sea as they will cause broaching or other
unsafe handling characteristics.
• Do not use trim tabs to compensate for excessive unequal weight distribution.
