Abstract
A wakeboat has a hull, the hull forming a wake when moving forward in the water, with a port disturbance and a starboard disturbance in the wake. A trim tab is supported by the hull at the stern of the hull. The trim tab comprises a primary subtab and a secondary subtab. Actuators may be optionally included to reposition the trim tab more into, or more out of, the water. Other systems and methods are also provided.
