Many of today’s high performance yachts are capable of cruising at greater speeds than was possible just ten
years ago. Quantum is proud to be the pioneer indeveloping high performance motion control solutions
for this growing market. Quantum , the first company todeliver a fully digital adaptive logic electronic control for
stabilizers and trim tabs, also developed and fielded the
first active trim tab ride control systems with retractable
foils, designed to optimize the performance over a
much broader speed range than was possible using either fins or trim tabs alone.The concept leading to the ARCHER >
Blue Velvet ™ design was todevelop a system that combined the roll damping
benefits of the fin stabilizer with the pitch and
trim control attributes of the active trim tab.The performance delivered by these systemshas been proven to be “absolutely fantastic”
providing the best of both worlds. The
systems are designed to have minimum
drag at the high end of the vessel’s speedrange (foils retracted) but much greater
motion control at the lower end of the
speed range with the foils extended.
These systems allow for optimized
motion control at long range cruise
speed and at short haul “sprint”speeds. >

• Yachts Sizes:From 80’ – 230’
Speed Ranges:20 – 60 knots • Commercial (Fast Ferries,
Patrol boats) Sizes:100’ – 300’Speed Ranges:15 – 60 knots >
™ also provides for significant enhancement of
directional stability in quartering
and following seas.The engineering staff at Quantum works very closely with the builder
and naval architect during the
construction and installation phases of the project. This same level of
installation support is provided for
retrofit projects to assure successful
implementation. >
