How Insta-Trim Trim Tab Systems Work:

Insta-Trim Boat Leveler tabs are two stainless steel planes installed on the transom. As the hydraulic cylinders deflect the trim tabs, water flow is redirected. This waterflow creates upward pressure under the trim tabs, raising the stern. As the stern rises the bow lowers. Because proper trim tab surface area is essential, larger and/or slower boats require larger trim tabs than smaller faster boats.

Insta-Trim Boat Leveler Tabs employ the force of hydraulics for smooth trimming action. When the trim tab rocker switch is pressed, electrical current is sent to the hydraulic motor pump unit. This signal activates the electric motor, creating fluid pressure. Valves on motor pump unit open, channeling the required amount of fluid to the actuators. When the trim tab rocker switch is released, the valve close, capturing the fluid in the actuators hydraulic cylinders. Thus trim tabs hold their position.

Most boaters have experienced the “porpoising effect” that many hull designs create.  It’s the typical upward and downward movement that is so aggravating to boat owners.  By simply pushing the buttons on the Insta-Trim - trim tabs you can eliminate that problem all together.

The Insta-Trim - trim tabs help keep the boat planted to the water at higher speeds, giving you more control over your vessel. They also give the benefit of extending the planning surface of the hull.  This will make your boat act as a larger boat than it actually is.  On a runabout or sport boat this will help on those choppy days out on the water. A well trimmed boat is safer and more controllable

Boaters around the world have experienced the fuel savings by using Insta-Trim trim tabs in the proper way.  Being able to get up on plane in a quick and efficient method is the best way to start saving fuel.  Using Insta-Trim trim tabs allow you to stay on plane at a much lower RPM than your boat can do on its own.

Trim Tabs provide lift to the stern allowing your boat to get on top of the water instead of pushing the “hill” of water that normal boats have to deal with.  With the addition of Insta-Trim trim tabs on your boat you can travel greater distances and reach those hard to find fishing spots using less fuel.
