A revolution
We’re proud to present Zipwake, the new, Dynamic Trim-Control System that’s set to revolutionise the boat world. Featuring an advanced, intuitive control system and a stunning new innovative design, Zipwake delivers a more comfortable ride, better performance and improved fuel consumption – whatever the conditions.
Zipwake, the world’s first inexpensive dynamic trim control system, incorporates a state of the art series of durable, fast-acting interceptors, eliminating the well-known trim problems of planing and semi-planing boats. The system is fully automatic and significantly enhances performance, fuel economy, comfort and safety when accelerating, turning or running in a seaway
We are proud to present our latest ”world’s first” - mass produced V-shaped interceptors. They make the successful Series S even more versatile and highly competitive. V-shaped interceptors for centreline mounting are perfect for filling the gap between twin outboards or sterndrives, as well as dual propeller tunnels.
The four V-shaped models cover deadrise angles effectively between 11 to 24 degrees.
V-shaped centerline mounted interceptors can be included in new installations, or retro-fitted to already installed systems.
The modular design enables boat designers to develop their own novel applications, e.g. in multihulls or stepped high- speed craft.
ALL IN A BOX
A Kit Box includes all parts needed to install a Dynamic Trim Control System with one pair of fast-acting straight interceptors. There are four different Kit Boxes, one for each interceptor length.
Any base installation can be expanded with up to two extra pairs of Series S interceptors, thus allowing a total of six interceptors without any need for additional connectors or power supply.
KEY FEATURES
-
COMFORT AND SAFETY
Dynamically eliminates uncomfortable and dangerous boat pitch and roll.
-
PERFORMANCE AND FUEL ECONOMY
Automatically minimizes wave resistance and saves fuel.
-
INTUITIVE AND PRECISE CONTROL
Innovative 3D controls provide unmatched control of running trim, heel or heading.
-
DURABLE AND EFFECTIVE
Patented series of durable fast-acting interceptors provide supreme lift force characteristics.
-
COMPLETE AND COMPETITIVE
All-inclusive mass-produced modular design provides built-in quality, simple installation and easy expansion, whilst making the system affordable.
-
MORE EFFICIENT LIFT
Near full beam interceptor arrangements are much more efficient at making lift compared to trim tabs with narrow span.
-
LESS DRAG
Zipwake’s interceptor blade extends just 30 mm, whereas trim tabs often project 150 mm reflecting substantial drag.
-
5 TIMES FASTER ACTUATION
Zipwake’s blade stroke takes 1.5 seconds, outperforming conventional trim tabs by at least a factor of 5.
-
LESS WAKE
Interceptors provide more effective trim control creating less waves which directly leads to better fuel economy.
