2021 OWNERS MANUAL / 252
Purpose
The GEN2 tabs are preset for factory loaded profiles, but can be
manually adjusted to help build and shape a surf wake with more
push and a larger optimal surfing area. The center Attitude Adjust-
ment Plate can aid in this as well.
Location
The WSDs are installed on the port and starboard sides of the boat’s
stern. The control switches are located on the helm mounted switch-
pack. The tabs can also be controlled through the dual screen dash
by adjusting tab sliders or by setting or adjusting a profile.
Operation
In the presets, SURF RIGHT will deploy the port tab, and SURF LEFT
will deploy the starboard tab. Tabs can also be used as traditional
trim tabs to help level the boat when running with an unbalanced
load, or when a strong wind is present. The three tabs are operated
via individual switches on the switch pack mounted to the right of
the helm. The switches are labeled UP and DOWN. The DOWN but-
ton will lower the tab and redirect the water coming o the transom.
Pressing the UP button will raise the tabs back up, out of the flow
of the water. Using three individual switches gives more control
over each tab to maximize wake and wave potential, and gives more
freedom to use the tabs as trim tabs.
Special Attention
On all models, GEN2 tabs are limited to seventy-five percent (75%)
maximum extension when the boat speed exceeds twenty five miles
per hour (25 mph) or forty kilometers per hour (40 km/h).
Maneuvering a boat with the tabs extended requires practice to
master. Initial times running with the tabs extended should be done
at low speed with plenty of room. This is critical to learning how the
tabs aect control and maneuverability.
Electromechanical actuators provide an instant response. When
making adjustments, use short momentary taps of the switch.
Large adjustments to the surf tabs may result in loss of control
which could cause serious injury or death.
