IMPROVES YOUR BOAT'S OVERALL PERFORMANCE GUARANTEED!!!

Why buy a manually adjusting trim tab set when you can get the automatic trim tabs that will self adjust and perform better for less money?

Our breakthrough technology in trim tabs is completely automatic requiring no operator adjustment while underway. Nauticus trim tabs self adjust according to how you load and maneuver your boat.

The nitrogen Gas Actuator provides 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.

  • Reduce the minimum planning speed by up to 33%
  • Faster Acceleration
  • Increase top speed
  • Provide a level, more comfortable ride at lower speeds
  • Improve fuel economy, handling and safety

NO HYDRAULICS - NO ELECTRIC SWITCHES

Nauticus trim tabs are completely automatic requiring no operator adjustment while underway.

The nitrogen Gas Actuator provides 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.(see installation instruction).

SPEED REGULATED

Nauticus trim tabs start in a downward angel 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.

BOAT STABILIZERS

Even when cruising SMART TABS continue to work like shock absorbers. The constant adjustment to sea conditions allow SMART TABS to provide remarkable stability in turns, while crossing waves, while cruising, and while running at maximum speeds. No more sliding, porpoising, or chine walking.

ONE OF A KIND

The unique system is the only one of its kind in the industry. The internal valve system is truly "smart" in its design of controlling you boats performance.

It will reduce the minimum planning speed by 33%

Provide a level, more comfortable ride at lower speeds

Improve economy, handling and safety

As the boat speed increases, the water pressure also increases. Once the water pressure exceeds the Actuator load rating (maximum LIFT period) the trim plates begin to move upward until they are horizontal with the bottom of the boat.

The internal valve system dampens the trim plate movement which eliminates any instant reaction to minor water pressure variances. Nauticus trim tabs provide smooth and undetectable reaction to boat speed creating a level, more comfortable ride at lower speeds.

INSTALLATION IS SIMPLE

With an electric drill, small drill bit, a phillips screwdriver, and two wrenches, just about anyone can install SMART TABS in less than an hour. Professional installers should be able to install SMART TABS in 30 minutes or less.

All mounting hardware, instructions, and templates are included.

SMART TABS require NO THROUGH HULL DRILLING

No worth buying
Size: 24+19
Not worth buying, 1 month after installation they stopped working well you could see the rubber piece that makes contact with windshield was loose on the verge of coming off, it was put on our 22 civic one that isnt used very often, so the fact that they died out so easily was disapointing, i plan on looking for some better ones and avoiding this brand 👎

Recommend!
Size: 24+19+10
These are fantastic. They were inexpensive, which made me nervous, but they are definitely high quality. They were all 3 super easy to install. Highly recommend! They also don't leave my windows streaky.

Quality Wipers
Size: Combo Pack (23" & 19"), Style: Top Lock Narrow
These Bosch Aerotwin wipers are a perfect fit for my 2020 Audi Q5 and work exactly as expected. Installation was quick and straightforward, and they snapped right into place with no issues. They wipe smoothly and quietly, leaving the windshield crystal clear even during heavy rain. Performance feels very close to OEM quality—no streaking, no skipping, just consistent and reliable cleaning. They also hold up well at highway speeds without lifting or making noise. Overall, a great upgrade or replacement for the Q5. Highly recommend if you want dependable, factory-style performance without paying dealership prices.
