The SeaSkater is a self-adjusting weir oil skimmer, it represents a significant step forward in weir skimmer design.
Conventional weir skimmers typically have the float frame under the skimmer - the unique SeaSkater has it above to reduce draft. The SeaSkater has large diameter floats to increase the water line beam, combined with a lightweight design, results in a new generation of weir skimmers with unparalleled responsiveness to wave movements. The high buoyancy to weight ratio limits drastic changes in draft due to oil skimmer loading.
