The rotor stabiliser uses the Magnus Effect to generate lift, with surprising results. The technology is being pioneered for smaller craft by RotorSwing, a Dutch specialist catering for motoryachts and sportsfishers of all sizes. "Theo Koop invented the Magnus Effect stabiliser back in 1970", says Rien van den Bergh, RotorSwing’s office manager. "But it wasn’t until about 10 years ago that the technical limitations were resolved."
