For stabiliser systems
Reducing the roll of the boat, and how effi ciently fi ns achieve this will depend on several factors.
• First, the size of the fi ns compared to the boats “stabilizing requirements”.
• Fin positioning on the hull which in turn decides the angle they work.
• Leverage arm length around the vessel centre of gravity.
The bigger the stabilizer fi ns, the more boat roll is reduced. There are limitations to the size of fi n stabilizers you can install depending on the size of
the boat. Limitations are typically decided by:
• space requirements compared to available space in the boat,
• Added drag and potential speed loss
The typical/ default size recommendation is calculated based on the provided data to reduce the roll at your chosen “minimum stabilizing speed” of
approximately 5 degrees.
(NB: that this is not a guaranteed fi gure as there many factors that could affect performance at varying speeds.)
The “AnySpeed”, “zero speed” or “at anchor” stabilization, is by default calculated to reduce the roll by approximately 4 degrees.
Please follow this general guide for steps to prepare and plan your installation process:
•
Find the best possible position of the fi ns based on the information provided in the sections about:
• Safety and General precautions Measurements.
• Please note the very flexible installation methods possible including off-set angle installation.
•
Possible with Sleipner stabilizers as this might enable installation in positions more suited and effi cient than possible with some other brands or
types of fi n stabilizers.
• Fin positioning
• Hull forces
• Ensure that it is space to do the reinforcement of the hull if necessary
Plan the installation of the hydraulic parts including hose/pipe runs based on the information provided in the sections:
• Basic hydraulic installation
• AC power pack
• Noise considerations
•
Relevant hydraulic diagram with hose specifi cations for your particular system
Plan the installation of the electrical parts including the control panel and wiring runs based on the information in the sections:
• Power supply
• S-link wiring
• Control panel installation
Your Sleipner representative will be able to help make an educated decision for what is the best solution for your boat and your preferences. Before
starting the installation the Sleipner representative can ensure that you are not installing parts and products that will not meet your expectations.
