| First Ad by a Production Boatbuilder Announcing Seakeeper as Standard Equipment |
The above ad was released to 7 major boating publications in December 2013.
Two sea trials on different types of boats convinced me this would be the next big step forward in powerboat technology. Once you try it, It's unlikely you'll put up with rolling again!
The MJM 50z is more stable than most to start with... witness ISO Certification as CE Mark Category A Ocean... a stability rating that only two Down East style boats of any size have. The other being the MJM 40z. But, let's face it. All powerboats roll, no matter what the size.
This 9,000 RPM gyro-stabilizer has been out for 5 years and Seakeeper has sold about 1,600 units worldwide, mostly as custom installs on large motor yachts and sport fish. It is well-proven and requires little maintenance. You can read all about this amazing technology at www.seakeeper.com.

Sailboats offer more comfort in a seaway because the sail provides resistance to rolling. A powerboat may not heel with the wind… but, no matter how stable, will roll to some degree in a seaway…particularly at slower speeds when fishing, watching a boat race, etc. That's history. The 50z will stay upright and not roll like a powerboat or heel like a sailboat…. the best of both worlds. It's 1000 lb. weight is secured amidships in the bottom of the boat with a structure having the strength of an offshore sailboat.
