While on a ship of any size, it is desirable to have a stable deck to ensure maximum safety and enjoyment for passengers. Ships have normally relied upon the design of their hulls for stability. However, even with a superior hull design, ships are incapable of completely mitigating such rolling motion. To reduce rolling motion further, an additional stabilization system must be implemented. This report documents the development of such a stabilization system in response to the request for proposal (RFP) received from WaterWorks Co. on October 17, 2017.
