Thanks for the responses, Nilo, BmcF, and AMG. Much appreciated. Getting a ride on a yacht with an active trim-tab system has just made it on my to-do list. It really would be nice, to have that option on a planing yacht if for only the unexpected occurances of bad weather yachts are often faced with. If those systems are effective, it would simply be utilized as a safeguard against unexpected bad weather and certainly not a reason to knowingly venture into/cruise in bad weather/conditions.... and that is especially true if its due to overconfidence in the stabilization system or if the captain/crew lack experience in those systems.. I would think that is a given..

Thanks again
