Zipwake offers two main types of systems: the Series S, designed for smaller boats and vessels up to 50 feet, and the Series E, tailored for larger ships up to 100 feet in length. Each system is equipped with highly sensitive sensors and intelligent electronics, allowing it to respond quickly to changes in the boat’s position and make adjustments for the smoothest ride possible. Zipwake systems provide an ideal combination of high performance and ease of use, significantly enhancing the vessel's overall handling characteristics..

What is the main function of Zipwake interceptors in a boat's trim control system?
Zipwake interceptors are fast-acting devices installed along the boat's transom to dynamically adjust the vessel's trim, enhancing performance, fuel efficiency, and passenger comfort. Unlike conventional trim tabs, Zipwake's interceptors deploy vertically, allowing for quicker and more precise adjustments to the boat's pitch and roll. The system is fully automatic, utilizing advanced 3D controls to optimize running trim, thereby minimizing wave resistance and improving overall handling.
Zipwake Series interceptors are designed for seamless integration, featuring an intuitive control panel that allows for real-time adjustments to the vessel's trim. The system's fast response time—taking only 1.5 seconds for actuation—ensures optimal performance in various sea conditions. Actuation takes place by way of a calibration-free submersible electric servo, making operation precise and efficient. Installation is made easy with an integral mounting plate and the option of a concealed thru-hull cable fitting, reducing complexity. Each interceptor comes with a practical drill template for accurate placement, and the self-sealing design enhances durability in marine environments. Supported by Imtra, this product family provides a reliable trim control solution for both inboard and outboard vessels.
How does the Zipwake Trim Control System improve fuel efficiency?
Zipwake Trim Tabs provide automatic and precise trim adjustments in varying sea conditions, enhancing comfort and safety. The system’s fast-acting interceptors and gyro sensors continuously optimize the boat’s running angle, reducing pitch and roll for a smoother ride. With a state-of-the-art motion controller and a calibration-free submersible electric servo, the system ensures efficient performance, improved fuel economy, and better stability in rough waters.
What are the benefits of using Zipwake Trim Tabs in varying sea conditions?
Zipwake dynamic trim control system enhances stability and fuel efficiency by automatically adjusting the boat’s trim in varying sea conditions. The fast-acting interceptors, including four straight and four v-shaped options, ensure smooth adjustments with a blade stroke. The system's calibration-free submersible electric servo within the interceptor unit allows for precise control, improving handling and comfort in semi-planing and high-speed vessels.
