TRIM TABS
The trim tab system is an electro-hydraulic system. Two rocker
switches, marked port and starboard, control a hydraulic pump and
solenoids. The pump sends hydraulic oil to hydraulic actuators
(cylinders) which lower the trim tabs. To raise the trim tabs, the rocker
switch is moved, which allows oil to flow from the actuator to the
pump. Trim tabs are used to compensate for uneven weight
distribution and to set the angle of the bow when under way.
WARNING
Improper use of trim tabs at high speeds can cause an
accident or injury.
