The deep V-hulls of modern sports boats are designed to give you a smooth ride in rough water. The greater the deadrise, the more necessary it becomes to use trim tabs to maintain straight-line running. Rolling and lateral heel depend on the wind and the position of the passengers. Longitudinal inclination, also called trim attitude, depends on speed and load. When changing course, the wind direction also changes and the boat must be re-trimmed. If passengers change position, trimming must also be adjusted again. This constant need to adapt the trim attitude to changing load conditions unnecessarily distracts the helmsman and therefore represents a safety risk at high speeds.
