Nose Center Mini-Wedge Black

The Nose Center Mini-Wedge Black (DTR1190) is a precision marine accessory engineered for anglers and boaters who demand control over their vessel's attitude and tracking in variable water conditions. After years on the water, serious boaters recognize that weight distribution and hull dynamics directly impact fuel efficiency, handling response, and overall safety—especially when navigating shallow flats, crossing rough open water, or maintaining stability in a loaded boat. This center nose wedge addresses trim and bow rise by strategically repositioning weight forward, allowing captains to dial in the perfect ride without retrofitting expensive ballast systems.

Manufactured by True Performance & Fabrication, the Nose Center Mini-Wedge features a compact 24 x 2 x 46-inch design optimized for tight mounting in the bow compartment or nose area of center console and open fishing boats. The black finish resists UV degradation and saltwater corrosion, while the 5.25-pound weight adds meaningful trim influence without creating dead load that reduces payload capacity for gear and passengers. Its wedge geometry directs hydrodynamic forces efficiently, reducing porpoising and encouraging a more level running attitude across the entire speed range—critical when you're running offshore or maintaining precision position on shallow-water flats.

This wedge is ideal for boat owners with center consoles, flats boats, and bay runners where nose-heavy trim or excessive bow rise compromises efficiency or sight-casting angles. Installation is straightforward: secure the wedge in the forward compartment or nose locker using corrosion-resistant fasteners, then fine-tune throttle response and fuel consumption through simple weight repositioning. Compatibility spans most center console and open boat configurations; measure your bow compartment and consult your boat's trim diagram to confirm fit. For anyone serious about extracting maximum performance and comfort from their vessel, the True Performance & Fabrication Nose Center Mini-Wedge delivers measurable improvement without modification to the hull or running gear.
