Smartgyro Boosts Presence In The United States Through Partnership With All Points Boats

A class-certified fabrication shop in the heart of the Lauderdale Marine District takes on Smartgyro's full stabilizer line, engineering each installation from the foundation up.

Smartgyro, a global innovator in advanced marine stabilization solutions, is strengthening its presence in the United States through a new partnership with All Points Boats (APB). All Points Boats will be its authorized dealer, installer, and service provider for South Florida.

Through this partnership, APB will have access to the full Smartgyro line-up, where all products share the same philosophy of high-performance engineering, and service-friendly features, delivering enhanced comfort and a smoother experience at sea.

Founded in 1996, APB has three decades of experience delivering fabrication, refit and engineering services to the marine and industrial sectors. A SAM.gov-registered manufacturer with certifications to ABS, Lloyd’s Register and RINA standards, APB brings extensive expertise in fabrication, systems integration and custom marine engineering to support Smartgyro customers throughout the region.

The partnership builds on the successful installation and commissioning of a Smartgyro SG20 gyro stabilizer aboard the Chelsea Rae, a 37.5-foot APB-customized Blackfin. The vessel now serves as APB's demonstration platform in South Florida, where owners and captains can experience the benefits of Smartgyro stabilization firsthand.

Christopher Collins, Director of Business Operations & Development at All Points Boats, said:

“The Chelsea Rae gives us a real platform to show Smartgyro’s performance to boat owners and captains here in South Florida — not a spec sheet, but a boat they can run. We’ve been incredibly impressed with the gyro, and installing it ourselves, on our own vessel, means we know exactly what we’re delivering to every customer that follows.”

Nate Goodwin, President of All Points Boats, added:

“We don't just resell equipment — we build, weld, and certify to class standard every day, so when we take on Smartgyro we take on the whole job: the engineering, the foundation, the install, and the service after the sale. Smartgyro builds to the same standard we hold ourselves to. That's why this partnership works, and it's why our customers can trust the result.”

Bob Walker, Sales Manager USA at Smartgyro, said:

“We admire APBs unique approach and the quality of its installations. Their strong market knowledge, customer relationships, and their commitment to service make them an ideal partner to strengthen Smartgyro’s presence in Florida. Their experience and dedication will be a valuable asset to customers and help introduce more boaters to the benefits of Smartgyro stabilization.”

 

Key benefits of Smartgyro stabilization include:

Smartgyro stabilization systems are engineered to deliver exceptional onboard roll reduction while maximizing reliability, efficiency and ease of ownership. Key benefits include:

  • Systems are designed to be fully serviced onboard so inspections, repairs, and component replacements can be carried out without lifting the boat out of the water.
  • A unique modular design, simplifies installation, ensuring components can be easily disassembled and passed through existing openings below deck, making installation efficient and cost-effective.
  • Features a robust liquid cooling system, hybrid ceramic ball bearings, and advanced control electronics with an integrated Inertial Measuring Unit (IMU) for real-time data, every detail is designed to deliver optimal performance, lower maintenance needs, and extended product life.

 

Smartgyro’s commitment to innovation and reliability has made it the trusted partner of choice for leading global OEMs and boat manufacturers. As part of the YANMAR Group, Smartgyro benefits from a strong industrial backing, global reach and valuable synergies across the Group’s portfolio of marine brands. This provides customers and partners with the confidence of long-term support, continuous innovation and access to a worldwide marine network.

 

This new partnership marks an important milestone in Smartgyro’s strategy by expanding its presence in North America, while reinforcing APB’s commitment to delivering high-quality engineering solutions for vessel owners throughout South Florida. Together, the companies provide a complete stabilization offering, combining advanced gyro technology with expert installation, commissioning and after-sales support.
