and “bow down”.
Using the trim tabs will:
• Level the boat; fore and aft.
• Reduce resistance in the steering system.
• Give you a smoother more stable ride.
• Speed will increase and there will be less strain
on the engines.
Maintenance
The trim tabs are a completely sealed unit and are
waterproof and maintenance free. Aside from a
general cleaning when the boat is out of the water
you should also inspect the planes and hinges for

Trim tabs (Optional)
Your 22O Dauntless can be equipped with
electrically powered trim tabs.
The trim tabs are located on the lower section of
your transom and are used to trim the list of your
boat caused by uneven weight distribution, too many
persons on one side of the boat, or strong cross winds.
An untrimmed boat will:
• Decrease operator visibility
• Reduce fuel economy
• Increase wear on your engine.
While accelerating there is some loss of forward
visibility before the boat is on plane, the trim tabs
can be used to adjust for forward visibility while
underway.
OPERATION
The trim tabs are controlled by rocker switches
located on the center part of your console above the
throttle control (See figure 2.8.1). Short momentary
bursts of the rockers will achieve proper attitude of
Ensure continuous visibility of other boats,
swimmers and obstacles during bow-up
transition to planing. Adjust engine to an
intermediate trim as soon as boat is on plane to
avoid possible ejection due to boat spinout. Do
not attempt to turn boat when the engine is
trimmed extremely down/under/in.

starboard (green) lights will illuminate. These lights
let other vessels know the approximate size and
direction of travel of your boat, depending on which
lights they can see. In the “Anchor Lights” position,
the white, 360-degree light will illuminate, showing
other boaters your location while at anchor.
When not being used, the anchor (all round) light
can be stowed in clips located under the stern flip up
seat.
