Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0126958A1] The invention relates to a device for aiding the balancing and stabilising of boats. The device is characterised in that it comprises at least three inflatable bags (1, 2, 3) positioned portside, starboard and on and/or above the casing (4) of the vessel respectively and a control unit (UC) which triggers the selective inflation of the portside bag (1) or the starboard bag (2) when the list angle exceeds the first pre-determined list angle values [- beta , + beta ] or the inflation of the casing bag (3) when the list angle exceeds the second predetermined list angle values (- delta , + delta ), which have a higher absolute value than the first list angle values [- beta , + beta ].
