Humphree Interceptors

[TonyR123]

Has anyone ever replaced their trim tabs with humphree interceptors? I currently have std trim tabs on my princess s65 but have never felt the need to use them (had the boat for 1 year and not used as yet). Never used them on my previous v55 either but did use the trim tabs fairly often on my prestige 500 before that.

Have thought about them as they (supposedly) improve fuel economy and the boat would be trimmed (almost) perfectly all the time without me doing anything. I am sure now and again I probably should be trimming the s65.

Just interested in any first hand experience, especially with regards fuel economy and roll stabilisation. Not cheap to install hence I would need to apply some "man maths" to justify them.

I've done some research on these too along with the Zipwake similar items, where the dealer came back with some info. A lot of the test info seems to be on smaller, lighter boats than yours and mine too so I'd be interested of anyone with experience with larger, heavier vessels and their effectiveness.
