Active stabilisers require lots of energy therfore one would need a generator running to provided hydrolic power 24/7 On a 60 ft displacent vessel it should be possible to be at anchor for 12 hours running on batteries alone ( assuming one uses the correct equipment ) In this case flopper stoppers are the best option.

Yes deploying and handeling flopper stopers can be dangerous to the careless or inexperianced but they do work, even better when underway.
