The SX series incorporates all of the fully automatic features of our popular SMART TABS, in addition to the rust and corrosion free benefits of 9.5" X 10" molded composite materials. Assembly can be completed in seconds and the installation in a few minutes. The only tools required are a drill with a 3/16" bit and a phillips screw driver. SMART TABS SX provide un-equaled performance and durability with no maintenance in fresh or salt water. The system can be specifically tuned to maximize the performance of any power boat, and TRACKING RIBShave been added to improve handling at higher speeds.
The patented SMART TABS are a one of a kind trim and stabilizer system that automatically adjusts to the sea conditions, without the need for expensive electric or hydraulic hardware and switches. The system constantly reacts to the water conditions, boat speed, and balance providing a remarkable improvement on any boat.
Performance Benefits
•Smoother and Faster Acceleration - (Great for Skiing)
•40% less Bow Rise and 35% Lower On Plane Speed - (Great for Tubing)
•More Top Speed and No Porpoising or Chine Walking
•Improves Handling and Smoother Ride In Any Water
•Improved Fuel Economy (11% +)
There is no doubt that SMART TABS solve problems, but this simple fully automatic trim and stabilizer system offers improvements for small craft well beyond the consumers desires and expectations. Improvements in acceleration, bow angle (“hole Shot”), ride and handling, top speed, and even fuel economy are documented by OEM builders, by numerous national and international magazine tests, and most important, hundreds of consumer testimonials. Over the years and after selling thousands of sets to satisfied customers our confidence has grown to the point that we assure customer satisfaction with a ‘money back performance guarantee.'
How do they work?
First, it is important to understand that trim tabs become an extension of the boat’s running surface, and therefore change the performance and handling characteristics as they adjust. This happens automatically with SMART TABS because they react to the water pressure, boat speed, and payload.
At slow speeds they deploy downward which increases stern lift, keeping the boat more level and allowing it to plane easier at much slower speeds. At cruising speeds they are pushed up by the water pressure, but remain under a load creating ride control like shock absorbers. No need to worry about tab position when pulling a tube, wake board, or skier. Just use the boat and enjoy the benefits.
SMART TABS use a nitrogen gas actuator to hold the plates down during acceleration and provide lift to the stern. The plate size and actuator resistance (pressure) are determined by the boat size and horsepower at the time of installation. Even after installation the SMART TABS system can be tuned to the specific boat or the consumer’s preference.
All of this is done without the need for electric or hydraulic connection, feed holes, or manual switches. A few common tools are all it takes to do the installation in an hour or less.

Installation is SIMPLE!
With an electric drill, two drill bits (1/8" and 3/16"), 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
