SEAKEEPER RIDE SYSTEM
June/July 2023
|Boating
Ride automatically smooths out bumps and keeps your boat on an even keel.
Seakeeper, a company that made its name with marine gyrostabilizer systems, is now parlaying that reputation with the Ride system designed for automatic control of pitch and roll while underway. Engineered for boats up to 35 feet in length, Ride can eliminate up to 70 percent of pitch and roll, according to the company, though each boat will respond differently to the system. Ride differs from a gyrostabilizer that controls roll at rest and while underway. Ride works to control pitch as well as roll, but only at planing speeds.
The Ride system uses a pair of interceptor-like controllers (one on each side of the bottom of the transom). The electrically powered rotary actuators can adjust the blades up and down with mind-boggling speed.

FLIPPING THE SWITCH
Much reporting focuses on reasons why one might choose electric marine power. The issues of range, speed, noise levels, winterizing and ethanol challenges, lake restrictions, environmental concerns and more all must be resolved on an individual basis. Little gets said about how a boater choosing to repower with electric actually gets that accomplished. Is it DIY? And if not, how does it get done?

STICKING POINTS - Anchoring alternatives, and why you will always need a traditional anchor.
My brother-in-law likes to fish offshore reefs, and the process once entailed navigating to a mark, dropping a float, and idling upwind or up-current to drop the anchor in hopes the set would drop us back to the float.
