    Refer to Figure 3 for recommended clearances to transverse or longitudinal beams. Clearances aft of the Seakeeper<\/span> are shown to provide access for regular scheduled maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

    Noise\/Soundproofing<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Seakeeper<\/span> noise has been measured under steady state conditions (no wave load) in Seakeeper<\/span>‘s Engineering Lab and in our Factory Demo Boat. The steady state noise at 1 meter is typically less than 68 dBC. As the frequencies emitting the highest sound pressures are low (like other marine machinery), it is recommended that the Seakeeper<\/span> be installed in a machinery space that is already treated with soundproofing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
