24 Volt Trim

[Mississippi260]

What is this about doubling the voltage on the trim motor to 24 volts. Will the electric motor take it and if so how much does it speed up the travel.??

use the same motor.
it sure is fast all around- fast to trim, fast to bat turn, and fast to burn the pump up :lol:

Unless your boat is VERY light or and you have A LOT of horsepower (300 plus) I don’t think you need the 24 volt up trim for a drag race.

If you do go with 24-volt up trim make sure you have a switch that you can switch it back to 12-volt trim for your everyday ridin… One little mistake at 100 mph and it’s HELLO BEACH!

If your boat sucks down hard to the portside because your trim is not bringing the bow up fast enough when you drag race there are other things you can do such as change your power trim oil to a thinner viscosity. Not that I would know anything about that… hehehe
:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: but it works, :wink:

if ya scared say so!!!! go to 24volt and love it I have had mine on 24 volt for 3 years and have no problems with the pump or anything!!! now I will say this if you have a slomax bracket with the three cyl. it might be different story but a hipo unit do it!!!!!!

Unless yur haulin a KRISPY KREEME BIG MAMa waitress!! == no 24V needed..


AMAN + K-Kremme BIG MAMA= 24v Trim needed!


--------------------

Yu can put 24V's to fishin motor - non HP trim system(pump in tha bracket) ... but it seems to kill tha motor over time - one of those deals where soem run forever - soem die quick??? .. and tha motors aint cheap either - 400 bucks a roo's!

HP pump in boat + 24 V's= No problems at all

Line the 03's with high performance motors up... I want me sum of dat :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Bryan, you get to see it in person this year, not just hear about it... hehehe :wink:

My pump is inside the gas tank compartment, so does that make it an HP.??

[Yellowallison]

""make it an HP.??"""""""

YEA SIPPI!

that means yu got a single ram HP bracket..

 

[John Richied]

That just means you have a short shaft (15" shaft)

A 20 inch HP Mercury mid also comes with a boat mounted trim pump.
