Installation Location Introduction

The performance of the Seakeeper Ride system is a direct result of the proper mounting location of the Controllers. It is vital to abide by the criteria in the Seakeeper Ride Installation Location Guide to choose the optimal mounting point for the Controllers. Optional use of the Seakeeper Ride Controller Locator Tool will assist with locating where the Seakeeper Ride system will sit on the boat Hull and how much room it will take in order to install. See the Seakeeper Ride | Controller Locator Tool Manual for further instruction on use. 

For new production installations, please consult with the Seakeeper Applications Engineering Team or a naval architect for the proper location of the Seakeeper Ride Controllers according to the hull shape, hull type, engine configuration, and other relevant application details.

For refit installations, please review the following sections to determine the ideal location for the Seakeeper Ride Installation.

Note: For refit Seakeeper Ride installations, if there are trim tabs or interceptor, they MUST be removed in order to install Seakeeper Ride.
