Humphree All Speed Fin Stabilizers brings game changing stabilization at anchor and during cruising.

 

The system is fully electric with a minimum energy consumption. No need for a running genset. It´s light weight & compact size is highly appreciated among yacht owners around the world.

Our Fin Stabilizers are optimised for low water resistance, high efficiency and manufactured in advanced materials with unique characteristics. With the ability to rotate 360° at anchor – anchor walking is no longer a problem. The unique innovative custom-ready fin design will perfectly fit most hulls.

Humphree boat fins stabilizers brings state of the art technology with fast acting brushless electric servo units. Powered by 24 V DC it gives you possibility to have full comfort without the need of genset running. The new Humphree fin design has its upper edge made solid, another unique Humphree innovation.

The common need to cut the fin to avoid touching the hull is now very easy as no lamination is required. Simply cut the thin solid part of the fin to required shape and it is ready to be installed. It is further possible to reach a better tolerance of the modification compared to the traditional cutting/fiberglass work.

Combining the Humphree boat fin system with our interceptors and you have a full stabilization system for roll, pitch and yaw motions. For best control and lowest fuel burn.


Features & benefits

Custom-ready design
Upper edge made solid, no lamination is required when the fin needs to be cut and rebuilt in order to be fitted without touching the hull when it rotates. Saves time and costly fiberglass work.

24V DC
Clean operation without hydraulics, and no genset required!

360° rotation – combats anchor walk
The 360° rotation allows Humphree to rotate the fins 180° and gently pull the anchor when anchored at the bow. This minimise the so called anchor walk and will keep the bow against the wind to a noticeable extent reducing waves coming from the side.

Flange mount
The unique fin flange mount design minimises the damages in case of grounding and makes installation of fins very easy and fast

All Speed Stabilization
Full stabilization at anchor and at full speed!

Integrated Interceptors for total motion control (Pitch & Roll)
The combination of Interceptors and fins makes the difference, total motion control.

Compact Size & low weight
Sturdy and compact with unbeatably low weight. A depth of only 310mm from outside hull. Humphree All Speed Fins can easily be retrofit installed where other options are too big.

 


Humphree Fin Stabilisation - Zero Speed

 


 

Fin selection guide

Humphree fins are available in five different sizes to meet the different needs of every boat.






Twin installation

A slightly bigger fin will improve the zero speed stabilisation, which is recommended if the vessel has a top speed below 35 knots. The 0.60-0.80m2 fins are designed to suit our fast SU-553 electric servo unit. The SU-563 servo is developed for the larger 1.00m2, 1.30m2 and 1.50m2 fins. The chart below gives a general picture of recommended fin sizes. Certain boat types may require other solutions. Please contact us for advice.

 

Quad installation

The Humphree fin system can be configured with 4 fins operating as an integrated system for bigger vessels. The system will synchronize the operation between them without the need of extra configuration, just plug and play. The chart below gives a general picture of recommended fin sizes. Certain boat types may require other solutions. Please contact us for advice.
