Trim tabs

[Coupe]

Does anybody know if TT's on Phantom 50 retract when ignition off ?

Looking in the water when parked they are up but when underway the bow stays down and is digging in with even a slight following sea.

Speed down to 26 knots and slurping fuel like mad.

TT's down = bow down - right?

Possible they are auto parking, although it is not something i have seen on many, have you tried moving them when stationary and see if they are working ?

trim tabs down is defo bow down so if she is riding bow down then you have something activating the tabs. could be a short or a faulty tab switch, I had one (tab switch) on a 52 (Bennet tabs) and port tab deployed all on its own as soon as you hit the power on switch. Are they seperate switchs (one for each) or dual switches (both on the same face plate).
