Active Trim

Active Trim is an integrated GPS, speed-based automatic engine trim system from Mercury Marine. This intuitive, hands-free system continually adjusts engine trim based on changes in boat speed to improve performance, fuel economy, and ease of operation. It responds to boat maneuvers with precision and delivers a better overall driving experience. No knowledge of trimming an engine is needed to take advantage of Active Trim.

• As the boat accelerates, the engine will trim out
• As the boat decelerates, e.g. making a turn, the engine will trim in
• Active Trim can be overridden at any time by using the manual trim buttons
• Active Trim allows the boat operator to compensate for changes in boat load, driver preferences, and weather conditions while maintaining full automatic control

Active Trim is compatible with most:

• Mercury FourStroke outboards from 40 hp and up
• Mercury SmartCraft-capable two-stroke outboards
• Mercury SmartCraft-capable gas and diesel sterndrive engines with digital trim senders
  • For compatibility with Joystick Piloting for Sterndrives (Axius), please see your local Mercury dealer
