| GP333, they are used in almost all yachts over about 60-70 feet, it is a pretty proven technology and while they add complexity and cost to a vessel can really add a lot of stability while underway. I have included a link below that has a decent article on them, just not it is a few years old and there are more modern systems. http://www.powerandmotoryacht.com/fe...04stabilizers/
