Abstract
A method of controlling trim position of a trimmable device on a marine vessel includes determining a trim rate based on a rotational speed of a propulsion device on the marine vessel and/or a vessel speed of the marine vessel, wherein trim rate specifies a rate of rotation of the trimmable device about a horizontal axis. The trim rate is determined such that the rate of rotation is less at high vessel speeds and high rotational speeds than the rate of rotation at low vessel speeds and low rotational speeds. A variable speed trim actuator is then controlled to rotate the trimmable device based on the trim rate so as to adjust a trim position of the trimmable device.
