Pro Control: Enhanced Boat Stability and Control
Pro Control offers improved boat stability, especially when load changes occur, such as passenger movement. It features a new, reactive algorithm that enables superior control at all speeds and faster response times for better handling, with near-instantaneous adjustments based on sea conditions. Furthermore, enhanced propulsion allows boaters to adjust trim more quickly, resulting in greater comfort and superior visibility sooner, with a rapid transition to automatic leveling. With an average reduction of 24% in impact upon re-entry into the water, Pro Control provides a smoother, more comfortable, and better-cushioned ride.
Pro Control Assist: Manual Control with User Interface
Pro Control Assist features a manual control option with an intuitive selector designed to provide a state-of-the-art user interface. Boaters can enjoy all the benefits of Pro Control, including propulsion assistance, with NMEA 2000® connectivity and the ability to save their trim tab positions.
Standard Networking and Operation with Mercury SmartCraft
The new trim tab system includes standard networking that does not require an additional control box, making installation and setup easier. Pro Control is based on entirely new hardware operating with CAN technology, ensuring an interconnected system. In addition, it offers seamless operation with Mercury® SmartCraft and supports MFD integration for trim tab and surf systems, providing the best integrated user experience on the market.
Simplified Installation for Technicians
For boat builders, dealers, and technicians, an advanced configuration and maintenance tool is available to accompany Pro Control, allowing for advanced configuration, diagnostics, and the creation of boat profiles. The Pro Control system offers several user-customizable sensitivity and authority settings to achieve performance tailored to each vessel.
Our Opinion
The value of trim tabs on motorboats is well-established. New generations, such as those presented, enable smoother navigation with a 24% reduction in impact upon re-entry into the water, a 15% reduction in pitch, and faster reaction times.
