Is the Seakeeper Ride a game changer?

#CenterConsolesOnly #seakeeper #ride
We had the opportunity to travel to Atlantic City to experience the Seakeeper Ride! This is one product you need to experience to understand how it actually works. With the ability to control pitch and roll while running creates an entirely different experience while operating a vessel. The system is constantly calculating and has the ability to make 100 adjustments a second. This system truly is a game changer. Let us know what you think down in the comments!
Stay tuned in to @CenterConsolesOnly for the latest on all center console boats!

    You've posted on both seakeeper ride and zip wakes. They both look great. How would you contrast them? it seems like Seakeeper might be "better" -- faster, smoother adjustments? Asking bc I just purchased a 2023 Stabicraft 2050 and would like to put one of these two systems on.... trying to determine which would give the best ride on Auto. Of course my boat is smaller, 20.5 ft, so maybe that is a factor, too? Would love to hear your thoughts....

Does anyone have any pictures of retrofitting these devices to a Contender 25 feet in length or longer?

    @@hautehusseya gyro is the only current solution when not running. If your boat is large enough or you’re willing to give up the space and configure the power, to accommodate a gyro..that would be your best singular option. This product will be a win as a differentiator for manufacturers willing to add as standard equipment on 26’ and under. If I am running larger than 30, I would rather have the gyro which is active while running and while at rest/actively fishing. Far more simple operation than the gyro though from power to windup to running. If I were comparing mid-priced sub 30 options, this system would definitely move me towards one brand over another.

    La prova e forviante dovevano fare la differenza tra flaps normali e il seakeeper con quel mare se facevano la ripresa con i flaps negativi e sotto con i flaps tutti abbassati avresti avuto la solita percezione

    Not much new here! All this is included as standard in the Zipwake systems for at least the last five years. It is fast and has a seamless fully automatic pitch and roll control. Could be handled manually but as said in the video 98% of the time it's on autmatic. No need to interfear an already perfect calibrated system.

    These have been around for awhile now. Not sure why this is being portrayed as something brand new. As for me, putting one in a boat less then 50ft is a waste of money. Boats break and that will too. Just something else to keep pouring money into that giant hole in the water.
