Yes. A practical option is to use FFmpeg with the vid.stab/deshaker workflow instead of relying only on Warp Stabilizer. This works in two passes: first it analyzes motion in the clip, then it applies stabilization to a new output file.

Example workflow:

1. Run motion analysis with vidstabdetect
2. Apply correction with vidstabtransform

From the community example:

• First pass detects shake and writes a transform log
• Second pass stabilizes using that log and can add mild sharpening

This approach can work well even when the shot lacks one obvious fixed reference point, because the software tracks motion across the frame. You may need to adjust parameters such as shakiness and accuracy to avoid overcorrecting or ruining intentional movement like smooth panning.

Keep in mind that stabilization can only reduce the visible bumps; if the original motion is large or the framing changes too much, results may still be limited. But FFmpeg's deshake/vid.stab tools are a solid alternative worth trying for timelapse footage from a moving boat.
