    New to Trim Tabs

    I've never owned a boat with trim tabs before. They come on the Outlaw and I really don't know anything about using them or if their use is even necessary. Any advice?

    Thank you so much for the conversation on the phone. I have a much better understanding of what I’ve got, and look forward to learning more on the water!

    Not that this helps anyone and I profess to have no experience with gamblers or a boat with tabs. If a gambler has a hydraulic plate, tabs, and trim, I would love to see a video showing how busy the hands are during launch.

    Some have trim on the floor or steering wheel which helps.

    It’s not as bad as you would think, becomes a natural motion. But you don’t always need to use them at launch.
