Quick Group, one of the world’s leading manufacturers and suppliers of marine equipment for boats, yachts and superyachts, has unveiled its line-up for Metstrade – the world’s leading marine equipment show – taking place 18-20 November 2025 at the RAI Amsterdam. The exhibition is the perfect platform for Quick Group not only to display its extensive portfolio of marine equipment but also to reveal further significant technical upgrades to its Quick Gyro stabilizer range, as part of an ongoing program aimed at the continuous improvement of its stabilization systems.

In addition, the Quick Group team will be on hand to talk about the continued evolution of the groundbreaking SeaCentric System, which goes beyond stabilization functions integrating gyros, fins, attitude correction devices, and other control systems developed by XENTA.

Stable developments

Taking center stage at Metstrade will be the entire Quick Gyro stabilizer product line-up, showcasing not only Quick Group’s advanced stabilization solutions but also the latest refinements made focusing on mechanical, electronic, and dynamic control aspects.

“The development of the Quick Gyro stabilizer range is something we have really committed to,” states Lorenzo Mongiardo, Chief Innovation Officer at Quick Group. “Although the updated units may appear aesthetically the same, we have fine-tuned every aspect of the internal engineering and design covering the mechanical, electrical and control aspects, with the goal of achieving greater system efficiency and delivering an overall improvement to a product that is already well established on the market.”

The primary goal has been to further enhance overall system efficiency, concentrating research and development efforts toward five key areas. Noise reduction and weight optimization are ongoing improvement processes that began with previous versions and continue to be refined, while new developments focus on optimizing electrical absorption parameters, reducing start-up times, and developing advanced control algorithms.

The overall result is a significant improvement in the Quick Gyro’s global performance, with benefits in terms of efficiency, versatility, operational readiness, and control precision. From optimised flywheel mass to improved efficiency and evolved control algorithms, the updated Quick Gyro range boasts increased stabilization capability, reduced power draw, increased electrical efficiency, and optimized spool-up time – achieving more than 30 percent reduction in the time required for the stabilizer to be ready from power-on in the case of the X13, X16 and X19 unit.

“We used a range of simulations that allowed us to identify the source of mechanical noise, and that has allowed us to develop and introduce components that optimise damping and reduce vibration transmission,” enthuses Mongiardo. “By optimising the flywheel mass, we achieved the best in class spool up time on the market. We have worked on the electrical parameters, implementing updated power management algorithms that have led to reduced current peaks and a more stable and predictable absorption curve, improving compatibility with onboard electrical networks and overall system efficiency.

 “An updated ECO function further supports energy optimisation, and we have developed new algorithms for the flywheel acceleration control logic and torque control calibration leading to the fastest spool-up time on the market,” he continues. “Finally, we have added new control algorithms based on advanced dynamic models and adaptive compensation techniques, with particular attention to multigyro applications designed for multihull vessels or boats with limited installation space.”

SeaCentric superpower

Alongside the Quick Gyro updates, the Quick Group team will be available to discuss the evolution of the SeaCentric System. The SeaCentric platform brings together multiple components and adds smart control algorithms – for example, incorporating Quick Gyros, Intercepta IN and X series and Viator fins using SeaCentric delivers the ultimate stabilization and ride control by combining the best aspects of each system at rest and underway. But SeaCentric also extends to incorporating other Quick Group products such as Xenta’s propulsion, steering, and maneuvering controls, and Quick Nautical Equipment thrusters into a coordinated platform.

“This approach is really the future, and we see every day that the market is going in this direction,” says Mongiardo. “The key is to give the operator the interoperability of all the boat’s control systems, managed via the onboard Multi-Functional Display (MFD) incorporating stabilization, propulsion solutions, maneuver, thrusters, and attitude controls. Through these innovations and our ongoing development process, Quick Group reinforces its role as a reference not only in advanced stabilization technology but also in providing solutions that combine engineering, design, and reliability, meeting the needs of increasingly complex, modern, and integrated marine applications.”

A Quick Group Dive into Metstrade

In the Superyacht Hall, Hall 8 booth 550 will play host to the Quick Group brands Sanguineti, XENTA and Nemo. A superyacht sector stalwart, Sanguineti designs and crafts a wide selection of hydraulic and electric motion systems including gangways, ladders and platforms. XENTA, meanwhile, is a leader in the development of sophisticated software that enhances the intelligence and connectivity of onboard control systems, optimising boat manoeuvres and navigation. Nemo specialises in tailor-made solutions for powerboats, offering an extensive range of products including doors, portlights, hatches, non-hinged and flybridge hatches, and many other customised components.

In Hall 1 – booths 01.153 and 01.251 – visitors will find a comprehensive display representing the entire Quick Group. This area will not only feature the brands mentioned above but will also showcase the complete range of Quick Nautical Equipment essential products from anchors, windlasses, battery chargers and inverters, to water heaters, and electronic controls, with particular focus on the QSY brushless series QNE thrusters now featuring the CAN BUS protocol through the new PDC series of controls and fully integrating with both the Mercury Marine Joystick Piloting system and the Volvo Penta Assisted Docking system. Alongside this, Quick Marine Lighting will present its collection of premium lighting fixtures, offering high-quality and cutting-edge lighting solutions designed specifically for marine environments. The entire MC² range of onboard stabilization systems will also be on display, completing Quick Group’s extensive and integrated offering at Metstrade 2025.

Moreover, the Hall 1 area will include a Lounge space where visitors will be invited to meet the Group and engage with our experts to learn more about the company’s products, innovations, and future developments. The entire Quick Group team will be on site to provide detailed and professional answers to any questions, with representatives from the Italian headquarters as well as from Quick’s USA and UK subsidiaries, together with the experts from XENTA, Sanguineti, and Nemo, ensuring a complete and personalized experience for every visitor.
