Bennett Introduces Second Generation of Auto Tab Control
   
DEERFIELD BEACH, Florida, USA - Trim Tab manufacturer Bennett Marine has introduced the next generation of its popular Auto Tab Control. The original ATC won the coveted Innovation of the Year Award from the National Marine Manufacturer’s Association, the largest marine industry association in the United States.

Like the original product, the new ATC will work much like cruise control for a car — maintaining the perfect cruising attitude for the boat. But it also incorporates new technology that allows it to be smaller with fewer components and with a price tag significantly lower than the original design.

Bennett Marine Auto Tab Control

The ATC has proven to be a popular product with higher-end boaters for the considerable benefits it provides:

  • Fuel Savings: A properly trimmed boat can significantly lower fuel costs in a single season of usage. The ATC not only monitors and trims the boat, it does it better than a human.
  • Optimized Ride: When passengers move, speed changes, winds shift, or water conditions change, the ATC system adapts and corrects. It provides the best ride that can be achieved on the boat.
  • No Guesswork: The ATC monitors and maintains the best cruising attitude, calculating more than a thousand readings per second. The captain can relax and enjoy the ride rather than fussing with the trim controls.

About Bennett Marine
Headquartered in Deerfield Beach, Florida, U.S.A., Bennett Marine is the largest manufacturer of trim tabs in the world. More than 40 years after Charles Bennett invented the modern trim tab, Bennett Marine has become synonymous with unmatched reliability and outstanding customer service. Bennett Trim Tabs are two, independent, stainless steel, adjustable after-planes attached to the bottom edge of the transom of a boat. They are designed to improve lift and stability, greatly enhancing the boating experience. The Bennett Trim Tab system uses the power of hydraulics for greater power, precision and durability, with no electric motors underwater to cause premature failure.
