Trim tabs correct the bow rise that happens under acceleration, cutting hull drag so the boat gets on plane faster, runs on plane at intermediate speeds, and burns less fuel. They also let the operator correct uneven loading and listing for a more level, stable ride.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach trim tab blade is sheared and bent rather than welded, since welding alters the properties of stainless steel and invites corrosion; the result is a low-maintenance blade built for long-term service. The kit includes two Bennett A1101A hydraulic actuators, flexible nylon\/fiberglass hydraulic cylinders that push the tabs into position, with all hydraulic lines and wiring routed internally and concealed by the upper hinge so they are not exposed to the elements. Control is handled by an included Euro-Style Rocker Switch (ES2000) for simple, direct onboard operation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis kit is recommended for boats 22 feet to 30 feet, including flats boats, center consoles, trailered boats, cuddy cabins, dual consoles, deck boats, bowriders, bass boats, walkarounds, runabouts and ribs, and cruisers. It is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e

tubing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow does the Euro-Style control work on this kit?\u003c\/strong\u003e The Bennett 189E is operated with an included Euro-Style Rocker Switch (ES2000), giving direct onboard control of tab position rather than an automated indicator display.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the trim tab blades made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e The blades on the Bennett 189E kit are stainless steel, sheared and bent rather than welded, since welding alters the properties of stainless steel and invites corrosion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy use hydraulic trim tabs on a boat?\u003c\/strong\u003e Trim tabs correct the bow rise that occurs under acceleration, reducing hull drag so the boat reaches plane faster, runs efficiently at intermediate speeds, and can also correct uneven loading or listing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the hydraulic lines exposed on the Bennett 189E actuators?\u003c\/strong\u003e No, on the Bennett A1101A actuators used in this kit all hydraulic lines and wiring are routed internally and concealed by the upper hinge, keeping them
