The doors are open at the 2025 IBEX Show in Tampa, and the marine industry’s leading minds are already pouring into the exhibition hall. Among the buzz of innovation and new technology, one booth is drawing steady attention – Hardin Marine, proudly showcasing its newest advancement: the new Gen III Mayfair Trim Indicators.
The Debut of the Gen III Trim Indicators
At the center of Hardin’s display, the sleek Gen III Trim Indicators command attention. These next-generation units refine everything boaters have come to expect from Hardin — faster response, improved accuracy, and seamless integration with today’s electronic systems via NMEA 2000 connections.
Visitors gather around as Hardin’s team demonstrates the system in real time, showing how the indicators relay precise trim position data to digital dashboards. It’s clear from the reactions: this product is built to raise the standard for marine trim control systems.
A Full Display of Proven Marine Hardware
Beyond the new trim indicators, Hardin Marine’s booth is filled with the company’s trusted and well-known lineup of products that boat builders and performance enthusiasts rely on:
- Swivel Rigging Thru Hulls and Hose Assemblies engineered for clean installations and long-lasting durability.
- Battery Boxes designed for strength, ventilation, and corrosion resistance.
- Trim Tabs offering precise control and improved performance on a wide range of hulls.
- Steering Wheels and Helm Hardware built with the balance, comfort, and reliability that define Hardin craftsmanship.
Every display highlights the company’s commitment to innovation, performance, and quality that has made the Hardin name a staple in high-performance boating for decades.
Energy and Excitement on the Show Floor
The Hardin team engages constantly with builders, distributors, and enthusiasts. Conversations fill the booth — from technical comparisons and retrofit questions to new partnership discussions. A mock helm station lets visitors feel the system firsthand, turning wheels, toggling tabs, and watching the Gen III indicators respond instantly.
