I have the seakeeper on my 2024 Sportsman 232 and I will never own a boat without it. The ride is absolutely amazing. I can hit washing machine waves in the ocean and the bow stays level. My old boat with trim tabs would break your back and neck in the same conditions, and the speeds with the seakeeper increases. If you can afford it, get it!!!!

Brilliant. Would love to see you guys put the Seakeeper (the center gyro) on a FSH. Super $$$, but the products these guys put out look amazing. I’d almost call the Ride a must have on the FSH. I’ve got the same hull on the 255 wake and I love it, but I didn’t buy the FSH for saltwater because it’s a little light and the slope of the bow looks like you could stuff it. The Ride has me rethinking it.

The Seakeeper ride 450 is on my Heritage 231 and I just took delivery of the Yamaha 255FSH H over the weekend. I ran the 255FSH Saturday and Sunday and there is roll and steering identical to this video. My Heritage 231 with the SC rides a lot better. I'll be adding the SeaKeeper to my 255FSH, I am a believer in the product, big difference. Thanks

I believe this system works great on 22-24 degree bottoms that are tippy. Take a boat like a 23 or 27 Albury Brothers with its less variable degree bottom really would not benefit. Those boats really don't even need tabs and trim on the motor 80% of the time is all that is needed. Correct me if I am wrong. I own both a 24 degree bottom boat and will be picking up another Albury.

Do you program the zero pitch and roll with the boat on the trailer. How do you determine zero pitch? What could you measure to determine level at rest?

The system does it for you during the commissioning segment of the installation process. It's best to do that step in the water while sitting still with no movement.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm just wrapping up my DYI install in Baja. We don't have a harbor here at all, so flat motion free water is pretty rare. At this point I have just stood back and leveled the trailer and boat to what looks like a zero pitch and commissioned it. Going to put her in the water today! Really excited to see how it performs. Also, your install video was very helpful. I referenced it throughout my install. Thanks for taking the time to put that together. If my situation was different and I could have taken the boat to have the system installed, I would have for sure.

@shannonkelly4071 we're trying to get that answer now. Some are attempting to put a 450 on a 275. Not sure it will work though because of the extreme angle of the fiberglass in the mount zone. Would likely need lots of fiberglass work to make it viable.

@JetBoatPilot
5 ай бұрын
It has an accelerometer inside the console area that is programmed at rest for zero pitch and zero roll. When the boat is above 20mph the system simply maintains that same zero degree angle using the electronic actuators on the left and right of the boat. The actuators control the blades which create life when deployed. The system measures pitch and roll 1000 times per second and can adjust 100 times per second. It's super effective and a total game changer for Boaters in this category!

@JetBoatPilot

The zip wake cannot deploy its tabs fast enough to manage pitch and roll in real time. The Seakeeper deploys it's blades full up to full down in a fraction of a second so it can actively manage pitch and roll without lag. It's much more effective than any other tab system.

I’m sure it makes a difference, but there is no way it makes that much of a difference. With it off it looked like you were intentionally trying to upset the handling of the boat.

Seakeeper Ride is truly a real time ride stabilizer. Actuates from full up to full down in a fraction of a second so the goal of real time ride stabilization is accomplished by its speed. The zip wake is an automatic system but can't deploy and retract fast enough to deliver the same benefits. Hands down the Seakeeper is superior.
