Seakeeper 18 Launched in Cannes

September 11, 2019

Seakeeper launched its newest model, the Seakeeper 18, at the Cannes Yachting Festival.

Designed to provide more angular momentum without increasing weight, size or power, the Seakeeper 18 is a new option for boats ~65-75 feet (~20-23 meters) or up to ~56 tons. The Seakeeper 18 packs a punch with 18,000 Newton-meter-seconds (N-m-s) of angular momentum, the standard in measuring gyroscopic output, but in the same footprint as the Seakeeper 16 (16,000 N-m-s).
