[QUOTE="DaleH, post: 458011, member: 15636"] Based on your experience with them, I came “.” this close to putting them on my new boat, then realized a [b]potentially serious flaw[/b] with them for use in any current or following sea condition, so I could never recommend them for saltwater use running inlets. In any sea state or flowing river waters where a large wave forms behind you, you’d want to RAISE your trim tabs. Whereas those Smart Tabs would likely be in the full DOWN position. Look at this video, a large offshore center console boat swamps in seconds! https://www.fox13news.com/news/florida-news/watch-drone-captures-capsizing-boat-and-daring-rescue [/QUOTE]
