Genuine Carling Contura II rocker switch labeled “Trim Tabs”. This Trim Tabs rocker switch is a Double Pole Double Throw (ON)-OFF-(ON) switch, where (ON) represents a momentary function. All of New Wire Marine’s rocker switches are labeled with durable UV stabilized ink and large format text.
This product is the ENTIRE SWITCH combo and includes both the switch body and the labeled cover. Find the Trim Tabs switch cover sold separately here.
Our Trim Tab rocker switch is unlit. The lens shown on the actuator is only there to match other switches (commonly in a bank). If illumination is required, please purchase the trim tab actuator and appropriate switch separately.

What does this mean in real life? This is an exceptionally high-quality rocker switch from the industry-leading manufacturer, Carling Technologies. This switch will last many years in the harsh marine environment.

This Trim Tabs rocker switch is a Contura II style, as pictured above. Contura II is the one with the small bumps on it. We carry printed Contura II’s in red and blue lens options (selection from the menu above).
We also carry this label in Contura V style switch here. The Contura V style includes a two-lamp switch, which allows a great backlighting effect for night readability.
Trim tabs are metal plates on the stern of your boat near where the keel meets the transom. They move up and down to level off the boat, helping it get onto a plane and helping you stay on a plane at lower speeds. It also helps adjust the way the boat rides in the water as weight shifts due to people walking around, etc. This switch can operate all three common trim tab systems: hydraulic, electric or electronic controlled. You will likely need two of these rocker switches, one for each trim tab.

I have an older 1997 Searay I’ve been working on keeping it up as new as possible. Dash board and switches started showing age. I ordered these replacement switches and they are wonderful. They work and look great. Great replacement, probably better than original Had problems writing a review for awhile. Working good now
