Zipwake Control Panel Pro: Auto Trim & Heading Control for Precision Ride The Zipwake Control Panel Pro is the command center that turns complex stabilization and trim into an intuitive, hands-on experience. Built for serious boaters who demand a smoother ride, sharper handling, and real-time visibility, this panel combines two ergonomic control wheels with a sophisticated automatic system that keeps your vessel balanced across wave conditions and turns. Why this panel stands out Dual 3D control wheels for quick, tactile adjustments of running trim, heel, and heading—so you can fine-tune ride quality on the fly without breaking your line or changing viewpoints. Fully automaticDynamic Pitch and Roll control powered by a precise GPS, 3D gyro sensors, and a robust motion controller. A single press on AUTO keeps your boat level and comfortable, even in rough seas. Clear, at-a-glance feedback via a 2.8" sunlight-readable color display—showing boat speed, turning radius, pitch, roll, and interceptor positions in real time for informed decisions on every pass. Rugged reliability designed for harsh marine environments with IP67 waterproofing (front) and IP64 (back), ensuring dependable operation on open boats, center consoles, or flybridges. Extensive connectivity supports the full Zipwake ecosystem: connects to the distribution unit, external GPS, and NMEA 2000 networks, with ignition-key sense for automatic power on/off and USB for future software upgrades. Future-ready interface with a refined, intuitive UI that presents the right information at the right moment, reducing cockpit clutter and speeding decisions. Key capabilities and how they translate to real-world use with a 7-meter cable included in the package provides flexible installation options for most boats. The system manages up to 6 Series E dual-servo interceptors (or a mixed setup with single-servo interceptors), enabling precise control of stern lift and bow trim to reduce porpoising and improve planing efficiency. This translates to steadier starts, shorter stopping distances, and a more confident ride in chop or following seas. Automatic mode with instant feedback means you can set it and forget it—while still monitoring key performance metrics. The panel reports interceptor status and boat attitude, helping you optimize fuel burn, reduce hull drag, and maintain predictable handling in dynamic conditions. Auto Cleaning—a selectable periodic cleaning cycle—helps prevent fouling inside interceptors, preserving performance over time and reducing maintenance complexity. Ideal use cases Open-row speedboats and center consoles needing stable cruising and confident cornering in cross seas. Flybridge and sport cruisers where quick, precise heading control enhances maneuvering and docking. Long-range or coastal cruising where ride comfort directly impacts fatigue and fuel efficiency.
