Lenco 16" x 12" Standard Performance Trim Tab Kit w/Standard Tactile Switch Kit 12V

The Lenco 16" x 12" Standard Performance Trim Tab Kit with Standard Tactile Switch Kit 12V is purpose-built for boaters who demand precise boat attitude control and improved handling in variable water conditions. Trim tabs have become essential equipment for serious anglers and recreational boaters alike, offering dynamic hull management that transforms how your vessel responds to load changes, sea state, and operational demands. Whether you're running shallow flats with a full ice chest or transitioning from calm bays to open water, this Lenco system delivers the responsiveness needed to maintain optimal running angle and fuel efficiency throughout your day on the water.

The 16" x 12" tab dimensions provide substantial surface area for effective downward force generation, allowing independent port and starboard control to compensate for weight distribution, wind load, and turning forces. The Standard Tactile Switch Kit operates on 12-volt DC power—the standard electrical platform on nearly all recreational and fishing boats—enabling straightforward integration with existing marine wiring systems. Lenco's proven design uses electro-hydraulic actuation to raise and lower each tab independently, with tactile feedback switches mounted at helm for intuitive, thumb-operated control that requires no learning curve and functions reliably in saltwater, freshwater, and brackish environments.

This kit suits boats in the 20–30-foot range and performs exceptionally well on center console, open fisherman, and dual-console platforms where trim-tab response directly impacts fuel consumption, ride quality, and the ability to maintain aggressive approach angles toward structure. Installation requires basic marine mechanical skills and access to the transom cavity; professional installation is recommended if you lack experience with marine systems. The Standard Performance rating indicates this configuration handles typical displacement and semi-planing hulls effectively, making it an ideal choice for the working angler or weekend boater seeking reliable, responsive weight management without over-engineering for specialized applications.
