Just 10 years ago, Seakeeper was a fledgling company that had signed a deal with Azimut Yachts to offer its single-model gyroscopic stabilizer as an option.
Seakeeper Inc., which makes marine stabilization systems, has formed partnerships with Scout Boats and Bertram Yachts.
Seakeeper touted its growth in 2016, citing the fall launch of its Seakeeper 3 and Seakeeper HD.
Seakeeper said its stabilizers will now come standard on two of Cruisers Yachts’ most popular models.
Seakeeper will debut the Seakeeper 3, a stabilizer designed for boats between 30 and 39 feet, at the Nov. 3-7 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.
The new model seeks to make it more affordable for customers to take advantage of the latest technology.
It’s not often you hear a marine industry leader referred to as the Godfather, as Seakeeper co-founder Shepard “Shep” McKenney was in 2013 by PassageMaker magazine.
Marine stabilization company Seakeeper is going to roll out the technology for boats as small as 25 feet by 2017.
Marine stabilization company Seakeeper developed its first DC-powered gyro.
