Independent 5-Layer Engineering Analysis — Written Report, Actionable Recommendations, No Sales Agenda
Before spending $15,000–$150,000 on a stabilization system, know exactly what your vessel needs. Our independent assessment prevents costly mistakes and identifies optimizations you didn't know existed.
For vessels considering a gyro or experiencing basic issues
For vessels with existing systems or complex requirements
For yacht builders, refit yards, and commercial operators
We're that confident in our process. If you don't receive at least one insight that saves you money or improves performance, we'll return and reassess at no charge.
No obligation. No sales pressure. No follow-up harassment. If you never hire us for implementation, that's fine — the report is yours to use with any yard or installer you choose.
Every assessment produces a professional engineering report you can use for insurance, resale, or yard coordination:
Decision-ready overview with recommended path, estimated investment, and expected outcomes. Written for owners and captains — no engineering degree required.
Each of the 5 layers rated against best-practice benchmarks. Color-coded: green (good), yellow (needs attention), red (critical). Photos and data included.
Annotated photos of foundation, stringers, and installation. Electrical schematic showing load paths, breaker sizing, and recommended upgrades.
2–4 viable paths ranked by performance, cost, and complexity. Each includes: investment range, timeline, risks, and our recommendation with rationale.
Realistic scheduling with yard coordination notes. Suggested vendors and parts list. Maintenance roadmap with service intervals and cost projections.
Natural roll period, damping characteristics, and sea-state response. We determine whether your hull even needs stabilization — some don't.
Dynamic loading scenarios, tank effects, equipment placement, and vertical CG impact. Where the gyro sits relative to CG determines 60% of performance.
Foundation design validation, stringer alignment, load path continuity, and fatigue analysis. We identify cracks before they become failures.
Battery capacity under load, alternator output curves, genset transient response, and wire sizing. Most gyro failures are electrical, not mechanical.
NMEA 2000 network load, autopilot interaction, trim system coordination, and operator training requirements.
Every assessment produces a comprehensive written report including:
