Method of servicing or maintaining a gyroscope of an anti-roll stabilizer onboard of a seacraft. The method comprising a step of providing a seacraft provided with an anti-roll stabilizer. The stabilizer comprises a gyroscope comprising a container housing a rotor including a flywheel and a flywheel shaft that is rotatably mounted within said container by means of two support devices placed inside said container and arranged to support a respective end of said flywheel shaft so as to allow the relative rotation of said shaft with respect to said container. The container comprises a base portion mounted on a suspension held by a frame of the anti-roll stabilizer so as to be able to oscillate around a first axis transverse with respect to a rotation axis of the flywheel shaft. The container further comprises two end portions removably connected to said base portion. The method further comprising the steps of: removing one of the end portions from the base portion onboard of the seacraft; placing back said removed end portion and reconnecting said end portion with the base portion onboard of the seacraft; and pumping out air of the interior of the container of the gyroscope onboard of the seacraft after the container of the gyroscope has been reassembled.
