Description

Zipwake Series S Complete Kit Dynamic Trim Control

Zipwake Kit S is a Swedish-engineered dynamic trim control system designed to dramatically enhance the performance, safety, and comfort of planing and semi-planing boats. Unlike traditional trim tabs, Zipwake systems use fast-acting interceptors that adjust automatically to minimize pitch and roll, improving fuel efficiency, acceleration, and ride stability.

The Series S is Zipwake's core system, ideal for boats up to 50 feet and speeds up to 60 knots. It offers a cost-effective, modular, and easy-to-install solution with automatic trim, pitch, and roll control, built-in 3D sensors, and intuitive helm controls.

How It Works

Zipwake Series S continuously adjusts your boat's running attitude through its interceptors, reacting faster and more precisely than traditional trim tabs. It supports both automatic and manual modes via a control panel or integrated display, using input from built-in GPS, 3D gyroscope, and accelerometer.

Key Benefits

  • Smoother ride in rough conditions
  • Reduced fuel consumption and drag
  • Better visibility during acceleration
  • Stabilized turns with automatic heel control
  • Compact and rugged construction for marine environments

    Zipwake

    Posted by Terence G on 15th Jan 2021

    I was a little hesitant to try a new trim system because I've had hydraulics for a bit now. After speaking with Imtra and getting the system in hand and installed, color me surprised. The quickness, ease and smoothness of zipwake is amazing. I really wouldn't go back to hydraulic trim systems, loving our system.
