Product Details

The Smart Tabs ST980-40 is a self-adjusting trim tab system designed for boats, measuring 9 inches by 8 inches and constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel. This innovative system operates without hydraulics or electrical switches, providing a simple and maintenance-free solution to common boat performance issues.

Key Features:

  • Self-adjusting design automatically optimizes boat trim based on speed
  • No hydraulics, pumps, or electrical components required
  • Stainless steel construction for maximum durability in marine environments
  • 9-inch width x 8-inch chord length sizing
  • Reduces bow rise during acceleration for improved visibility and safety
  • Automatically retracts at cruising speeds to minimize drag
  • Helps boats get on plane faster with less throttle
  • Improves fuel efficiency and overall performance

Smart Tabs work by staying down at slower speeds to maximize lift and control bow rise. As the boat accelerates and reaches planing speed, the tabs automatically rotate upward to reduce drag. This passive, speed-sensitive system requires no pilot intervention and provides consistent performance enhancement across varying conditions. Ideal for center console boats, bay boats, and other small to medium-sized vessels seeking improved handling without the complexity of traditional hydraulic trim tab systems.

Great prices and quick shipping! They kept me informed of when the item was shipped also. Couldn't be happier!

need more info on page for parts like what engine is in your car other then that everything was great

It would be helpful if you could add an estimated delivery date next to each delivery method

Cheapest price I could find. Uses google checkout, which I like. Fast shipping, sends tracking number fast.<br>Limited shipping options, but the thing I ordered was an odd size.<br>

Easy to navigate!

Picked you guys from a number of parts sites for the best price including shipping.

great site

Quick, easy. I like the great price &amp; free shipping. Only problem is, the item is a black, diamond-plate METAL trailer box. It was packed simply in cardboard, no protective package around it either inside the box or around the item. That's it, ite

I ordered my Auto Vent Shade bug deflector 18174 on Thursday afternoon, June 14, 2012, and had it on my front porch by Tuesday, June 19, 2012. I thought that was fast shipping, especially considering there was a weekend involved. The price was also very reasonable. I am anxious to install my new bug deflector. I will be turning to Autoplicity in the future for my auto needs. Great Job Autoplicity!

Lowest prices around the web and excellent customer service. The only real issue was the wait between placing the order and when it was shipped. Took 4 days but I chalk that up to the large amount of business they due to their prices being so competitive. For the lowest prices that I've seen I didn't mind waiting a bit longer!

Amazing prices!

Ordered some headlight/taillight covers for my challenger, order # 10491. The covers were a brand that I like and for a cheap price for the pair! Can't beat that! I definetly recommend them for auto accessories, I know I'll be coming back :-)
