Common Concerns Answered
Why isn't a switch included with this trim tab kit?
The Lenco 9" x 12" Edge Mount Trim Tab Kit is sold without a switch to allow boaters the flexibility to select the control system that best suits their helm layout and desired functionality. A compatible switch kit must be purchased separately.
Is there a risk of water intrusion with these electric actuators?
While any submerged component requires proper installation, Lenco's electric actuators feature fully submersible designs and utilize plug-and-play waterproof Deutsch connectors, significantly mitigating the risk of water intrusion when correctly installed.
How does the edge mount design benefit my boat?
The edge mount design of these trim tabs positions the actuators inboard, requiring less vertical clearance on your transom compared to standard mount systems. This conserves valuable transom height for other equipment or clear water access.
