Nautical Technologies ST1610-160 Smart Tabs Trim Tabs 16in x 10in

The Nautical Technologies ST1610-160 Smart Tabs are self-adjusting trim tab systems designed to automatically improve boat performance without manual intervention. These 16-inch by 10-inch trim tabs mount at the transom and deploy automatically based on boat speed, continuously adjusting to optimize running angle for better fuel efficiency, reduced bow rise, and improved handling.

Key Features:

• Self-adjusting technology requires no switches, wiring to dash, or manual operation
• 16-inch span by 10-inch chord dimensions for boats typically 16-22 feet
• Improves time to plane and maintains optimal trim automatically
• Reduces bow rise for better visibility and safety during acceleration
• Stainless steel actuator rods with composite tab blades for corrosion resistance
• Simple installation with minimal through-hull requirements
• Works continuously while underway to compensate for load changes

Smart Tabs deploy when the boat reaches planing speeds and retract when throttle is reduced, providing continuous trim optimization without the complexity of traditional electric trim tab systems. The ST1610-160 model is ideal for outboard and sterndrive powered boats requiring enhanced performance and handling characteristics.
