Rolls-Royce manufactures the broadest range of fixed
and retractable fin stabilisers on the market, suitable
for vessels of all sizes, commercial or naval. Customers
can select the most suitable solution.
One or more pairs of stabiliser are normally fitted
in the vessels bilge area. Vessel speed and the angle
of the fin in the water determine the amount of upward
or downward lift generated that is then used to stabilise
the vessel. The stabiliser system senses the degree
of ship movement and signals the fins to constantly
change angle to keep the vessel on an even keel. As
a result roll can typically be reduced by 80-90 per
cent.
A recent introduction to the market is the 'stabilisation-at-rest'
system for large yachts that uses retractable fins –
a world first.
