SEAKEEPER RIDE 1 YEAR UPDATE | Honest Review After Hundreds of Hours on the Water
It has officially been one full year running the Seakeeper Ride system on my boat, and in this video I wanted to answer the biggest question everyone has been asking…
Is it actually worth it?
After a full year of running charters, fishing rough Tampa Bay days, crossing open water, filming content, and putting this system through real world use, I finally feel like I can give an honest long term review.
This is not a first impression video.
This is what I truly think after living with the system every single week. Get your Seakeeper Ride HERE: ride.seakeeper.com/salty-scales
In this video we cover:
• Real world performance in rough water
• How it changed the ride quality
• Fuel economy changes
• Passenger comfort and seasickness
• Installation experience
• Reliability after one year
• Things I love
• Things I would improve
• Whether I would do it again
I also answer the most common questions I received this past year from viewers, customers, and other boat owners considering Seakeeper Ride.
If you have been curious about Seakeeper Ride and wanted a real captain’s perspective after long term use, this video is for you.
