I saw that on their website, then I saw the price! 😳
I'll bounce around. It's ok!
Yes, but that’s for a Seakeeper, not the Seakeeper Ride. They are 2 different products offered by the same company.

A Seakeeper Ride unit for a boat your size runs about $5,000 but that does not include installation which can very widely depending on your boats hull and power configuration. Consult Seakeeper for additional information.

For vessels 23’ - 30’ total retrofit installation would run approximately $31,000

New boat manufacturers are increasingly including, primarily as an option, Seakeeper.

Matt, I think the $31K number is for the Seakeeper gyroscope system, not the Seakeeper Ride, electronic trim tabs. 2 different products but I will investigate further.

Just looked at the link Longcast put up, and it seems that for our sized boat the Seakeeper Ride would run between $12-15K.
As nice and effective as it sounds, for that kind of money I would sooner add a Trolling motor with spot lock and keep exercising my fingers on the trim tab buttons!

If i had to choose between the SK Ride or a trolling motor, the spot lock wins every time, especially for our area.
If I was an offshore/trolling guy, running 30+ miles a trip, then the SK is more desirable, but to bottom fish or drift, that spot lock trolling motor makes everything so much easier and more precise. It is the game changer everyone claims it to be.

I just started a thread in the Offshore about Spot Locks and looking for some advice, recommendations, etc.
