The custom-designed 13.9-metre monohull motor yacht, named “TANK, was commissioned by a former client and, while a step out of Roger’s comfort zone, the new build will still have a number of “Hill hallmarks”, including the lightweight, durability of the DuFLEX panel system.
The 8 tonne boat is being constructed by Jillian Griffiths and the team at Noosa Marine, from DuFLEX/Foam Composite Panels of varying densities, and it has a 1,900 Litre fuel capacity, which will provide approximately 700 nautical miles of range at a cruising speed of 25 knots. But will also be capable of 50 knot runs to Stradbroke Island for a family picnic.
“The lightweight construction optimises the vessel’s performance and installation of a Quick MC2 anti-roll gyro will provide added stability,” says Roger.

The significant size advantage makes it very easy to find a suitable spot for the X10 gyro in any new design.
A new product this week comes from Gineico. The newest addition to the Quick Gyroscopic stabiliser family is the X10 and the technical data on this unit is impressive. From a size perspective the X10 is just 48.8cm square. That is an incredible 20cm smaller than competitor gyro brands! That significant size advantage makes it very easy to find a suitable spot for the X10 gyro in any new design, leaving more space for other equipment like generators or AC compressors. It is equally easy to retrofit the little X10 gyro in existing vessels where you would otherwise be forced to tear your vessel apart to find room for the bulkier gyro brands, or as often happens, you are forced to use a smaller gyro that does not have sufficient anti-roll torque to stabilise your vessel.

The X75 is the most powerful and innovative gyro stabilizer ever produced by Quick. In order to better understand how such a “great” result has been achieved, we interviewed Fulvio Romano, Operations Director, and Chiara Marzucco, Vice President of this well-known Italian multinational company.
The result was a very exciting and useful technical conversation, which satisfies both the curiosity of owners and captains and the information needs of those who are responsible for building the wonderful super and mega yachts we are used to telling you about.

The Quick X3 Mini Gyro made its New Zealand debut at the recent Hutchwilco NZ Boat Show, mounted in the belly of the new Tino Marine 770 AMPH amphibious vessel.
Just 42cm square and producing an unmatched 3900Nm of anti-roll torque, this tiny gyro-stabiliser is ideal for trailer boats and small sport vessels.

Combining an aluminum hull, GRP superstructure and Tectrax amphibious system, Fenton Marine’s new 770 AMPH is an impressive performer both on and off the water.
Few boats attract as much attention at the ramp as did the new Fenton Marine 770 AMPH. I suspect that could be because it doesn’t look like a conventional amphibious boat. Instead, it seems more like a very classy, stylish cruiser that just happens to sit on three wheels rather than a trailer.

The assegai is the short stabbing spear once used in battle by people of Southern Africa, most famously by Zulu and Ndebele (Matabele) warriors. It was and is a fearsome weapon.
Custom-built in Australia on Queensland’s Gold Coast, the Assegai 51 Resolution is the weapon of choice for ardent game fisher and Bay of Islands Swordfish Club President Jeff Douglas.

In Part One of a two-part series on gyros, we look at the DC options suitable for trailer boats.
Until recently gyro stabilisers have been the domain of cruisers and motor yachts, but thanks to companies like Seakeeper and Quick, they are now available to the larger trailer boat market.

Quick USA, Quick Spa’ branch in the US, brought its broad display of Italian manufactured products to the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) and was pleased that it did.
While the company’s equipment seemed to be more prevalent on more manufacturers’ dashes at this show, that seemed especially true on European builds. Michele Marzucco said that the brand is gaining increased visibility in the U.S., especially as people are researching gyroscopic stabilizers that are being used on more boats of all sizes. Among many Quick’s advantages: having a smaller footprint, being air-cooled rather than water-cooled, eliminating plumbing installation and running on both A/C and D/C power.

If you think that gyro stabilizers are all the same, you’re wrong. Indeed, there are some important differences, both conceptual and technological, between the various models available on the market and making the right choice, when you choose to install this useful accessory on your boat, is essential.
Quick Spa, the Italian multinational company of nautical equipment, produces a gyro stabilizer that, thanks to its efficient and innovative technology, is literally conquering the global market.
Faced with such a widespread phenomenon, we have decided to investigate the reasons that have led Quick to remove the old leader of the American market from the throne where he was so placidly gloating.
There are at least four reasons why, in our opinion, boaters from all over the world have started to prefer Quick stabilizers.

Gyroscopic stabilizers have become an increasingly indispensable accessory. Similarly to steering joysticks, initially received with skepticism and then become a standard, these accessories, too, have definitely won the trust of boat owners and, today, are happily used on most yachts.
It is not that modern boats roll a lot, it is quite the opposite, but the the growing diffusion of yachting and an increasingly uncertain weather subject the yachts to wave movements that, when possible, it is very convenient to reduce.

Because they eliminate roll and make life aboard so much more pleasant, stabilisers have become something of a must even for smaller craft. Now Quick has developed the MC² range to steady everything from tenders to superyachts.
Whenever technology pushes a boundary and changes the state-of-the-art of an object or system, it creates new standards that we quickly become used to, particularly if they improve our quality of life. Once you have tried out certain things that make life easier, you simply never look back. This is a time when boats are changing rapidly thanks to digitalisation which is driving us in the direction of Yachting 4.0. In recent years, stabilisation systems have radically improved onboard comfort. Aside from the fin systems used more commonly on large and very large pleasure yachts, regular motoryachts tend to use gyroscopic systems.

The success of the stabilizers has now made them a highly desirable option, for some indispensable, on board. Among the most popular are the Quick Gyro stabilizers by Quick, an Italian company that produces nautical accessories that are exported all over the world.
Quick Gyro gyro stabilizer: the advantages
Quick’s boat stabilizers are taking this accessory to smaller and smaller boats. Even a boat of just 28 feet, just over 8 meters, can mount a Quick gyro stabilizer on board, in particular the MC² Quick Gyro X2.
This work has not gone unnoticed at the shipyard level and there are many builders who have entered into partnerships such as Monte Carlo Yachts, Cantiere del Pardo (for the Pardo Yachts motor line) just to name a few.
By mounting a suitable gyroscope on board, the basic fact is exploited that it has a certain ability to react to the annoying roll generated by the wave motion by transferring part of the energy to a less annoying plane (e.g. on the pitching plane).
A video that, through images, words and emotions, tells the true essence of Quick Gyro stabilizers. An amazing documentary film that Quick Spa, the international leader of marine accessories, is pleased to announce to its customers all over the world and to all those who would like to equip their own boats with a gyroscopic stabilizer, the importance of which is clearly explained by Quick Spa in this film with great visual and narrative impact.
From in-house manufacturing to the reasons that underline some of the company’s important collaborations and achievements of recent years, the new video, entitled Quick Gyro: reliable stability, fully illustrates what Quick Spa President and CEO Michele Marzucco defines as ” our gem.
