Seakeeper 26
Vacuum-encapsulated gyroscopic anti-roll stabilizer for boats of approx. 70' - 85', with 26,000 N-M-S angular momentum at max rated speed.
Description
The Seakeeper 26 is a gyroscopic stabilizer that counteracts boat roll at rest and underway. It is sized for vessels up to approximately 75 tons, with a maximum anti-rolling torque of 68,703 N-m and no outside appendages.
Inside a vacuum encapsulation the flywheel spins at up to 5,000 RPM. When the boat rolls, the gyro tilts fore and aft (precesses), producing gyroscopic torque to port and starboard that counteracts the roll.
