Seakeeper Gear Review
Behold the first truly practical, and only modern, anti-roll gyro. Seakeeper is designed to virtually eliminate boat roll on vessels 23' and up. It requires modest electrical power, has no outside appendages, and can be installed virtually anywhere on board. The flywheel spins at speeds up to 557 miles per hour generating enough force to... well, stop a boat from rolling. Inside a vacuum encapsulation, a flywheel spins at speeds of up to 9,750 rpm. When the boat rolls, the gyro tilts fore and aft (precesses), producing a powerful gyroscopic torque to port and starboard that counteracts the boat roll.Seakeeper's active control works as smart technology, automatically gauging the sea state and reacting instantaneously. This allows for optimal performance at all speeds and sea conditions.
