MC² X13 DC Gyro Stabilizers in California
California waters are famous for comfort-testing conditions—long-period swell that rolls into anchorages, afternoon wind chop that builds quickly, and constant wake traffic around marinas and popular coves. The MC² X13 DC is a DC-powered gyro stabilizer designed to reduce boat roll both at anchor and underway, helping your boat feel steadier, calmer, and more enjoyable across the changing sea states common along the California coast.
Because it runs on 12 Vdc, the X13 DC is an excellent option for vessels that prefer or require DC integration while still wanting the proven comfort benefits of gyro stabilization—without external appendages and without compromising the boat’s handling feel.
Why MC² X13 DC Fits California Boating
From San Diego bays to Catalina anchorages and busy weekend harbors, roll can quickly drain the fun from a day on the water. The X13 DC is designed to help by:
- Calming motion at anchor in swell and cross-wake environments
- Improving comfort while cruising in mixed sea states
- Reducing fatigue for guests and crew during longer coastal runs
- Making onboard activities easier—relaxing, cooking, moving around, and sleeping

Control & Monitoring
MC² Touch Remote Panels
MC² stabilizers can be managed through touch panels with 3.5″ or 5″ graphic displays. These panels allow you to monitor:
- Precession release status
- RPM (flywheel speed)
- Inclination angle range (width of the inclination angle)
User utilities include maintenance reminders and fault alarms, with adjustment and display preference options for daily operation.
MC² Mobile App
The MC² Mobile App is designed to record stabilizer performance during sea trials and present results clearly on smartphones and tablets (iOS and Android), supporting commissioning and performance review.
