DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla., USA – Form meets function with the Bennett BXT System, as part of Bennett’s new Premier Line. This comprehensive hydraulic trim tab system exhibits the durability and strength required by 40-foot to 60-foot motor yachts, military/commercial and sport fishing vessels.

The dual acting hydraulic system locks the precision-machined, solid stainless steel actuators into place, securing the trim tabs in position while backing down or in other extreme conditions. This trim tab actuator is uniquely designed for this market – the only actuator that features internal indication sensors and internal hydraulic lines. This means no wires or cables are exposed to the harsh marine environment. The trim tabs are 7-gauge stainless steel, heavy duty planes with an exclusive interlocking hinge. The system includes the Electronic Indicator Control with its accurate trim tab indication and patented Auto Tab Retractor, which retracts the tabs when the vessel’s ignition is turned off. It also connects with Bennett’s Auto Tab Control to monitor and maintain the optimum cruising attitude.

The BXT System can easily be retrofitted to existing vessels, and all wire lengths are customized to the yacht’s specifications.
