ONE HELL OF A RIDE
Seakeeper Ride is the first-of-its-kind Vessel Attitude Control System (VACS) that eliminates up to 70% of pitch and roll underway.
Seakeeper Ride Vision
71% of our planet is covered by water. We want everyone to make the most of it.
Why is it better?
Wave motions can happen consistently or inconsistently, they can be big or small, and can come from any direction. Often, these motions occur in just milliseconds. Thanks to expert control software and hardware, Seakeeper Ride’s proprietary, rapid-deployment rotary blades make 100 adjustments every second to combat wave motions.
How does it work?
Seakeeper Ride controllers are mounted to your boat’s transom, below the waterline. Using custom, proprietary inertial sensing hardware and software, the system understands how the boat is behaving in all three axes and commands deployment of the rotary blades to counteract pitch, roll, and yaw. As the blades are deployed, they create lift at the transom, managing the vessel’s motion instantaneously.
Key Benefits
COORDINATED TURN
Seakeeper Ride automatically adjusts the heeling angle of your boat during turns for more comfort, increased safety, and better performance.
LIST/LEVEL CONTROL
Seakeeper Ride never allows vessel list from movement onboard, wind, uneven load while underway, and/or prop torque.
AUTO TRIM
Seakeeper Ride uses a customized Trim Command Curve to automatically adjust the boat to match the optimal running angle at any given speed.
HOLE SHOT CONTROL
Seakeeper Ride is optimized to allow for faster acceleration that gets the boat on plane more quickly which improves fuel economy during the transition to planing. The operator never loses sight of the horizon, increasing safety for all on board.
PITCH AND ROLL ELIMINATION
Seakeeper Ride eliminates up to 70% of underway pitch and roll motions that often cause uncomfortable pounding or slamming. The elimination of these motions contributes to increased safety and provides comfort, control, and confidence to all on board.
