Synthetic Sea Legs

IT’S AN UNFORTUNATE CONTRAST, but cruising open water without a care in the world can be quite unsettling for some. Seasickness is an unfavorable condition that occurs when the motion of a rocking boat disrupts fluid in the inner ear. Though it was once the case that homeopathic remedies and prescription drugs were the only ways to prevent mal de mar, Seakeeper has revolutionized the boating experience with gyro stabilizers fit for any vessel.

Did you know the word yacht is roughly translated from the Dutch verb jacht, “to throw up violently.” While seasickness has troubled mariners for centuries and boaters were once forced to earn their sea legs the hard way, the newest technologies have all but eliminated this debilitating condition. Since first introducing its gyro stabilizing systems for recreational vessels in excess of 40 feet in 2008, Seakeeper (seakeeper. com) has continued to perfect its products and expand its line to accommodate more boaters and establish gyro stabilization as a part of the boating mainstream.
