Easy-to-use
B&G Vulcan has an easy-to-use, intuitive, multi-touch screen. Use the
familiar pinch to zoom and swipe to pan actions to explore the many benefits
to make your life on the water easier and safer; add waypoints and plan your
route with ease.
Dedicated Sailing features for cruising and racing
With B&G’s award-winning sailing functions, you can see all of your
key sailing data together on one screen, or overlaid on charts for the modern
sailor’s ultimate navigational view. Simply add sailing instruments and
sensors to activate B&G SailSteer, which will provide an intuitive graphic
display of your Boat Speed, Wind data, Heading, Tide, Wind Shift Sectors and
even Laylines. It’s easy to add waypoints or plot a course; and with B&G
SailingTime you’ll see waypoint arrival times based on a sailing course and
tidal effects, rather than a straight-line calculation.
Simple integration
Get more from your Vulcan by expanding your system via the
industry-standard NMEA 2000® network. You can add sailing instruments and
sensors, as well as autopilot, Broadband Radar™, ForwardScan™ or SonicHub™ to
create a system to suit your needs. Vulcan can be used as a secondary
autopilot controller providing easy access to Intelligent Sail Steering,
manual and auto steering functions, and Smart Maneuver functionality combined
with intuitive menus for ultimate control. B&G Broadband 3G™ or 4G™ Radar
integrates with Vulcan to keep watch as you sail, with the ability to identify
and track targets from 36 nautical miles away (4G) to right off the bow.
ForwardScan compatible
With the addition of a ForwardScan™ transducer, you can see what lies
ahead under the water with approaching depth information. Explore
poorly-charted or unfamiliar waters confidently.
Built-in WiFi
Vulcan features built-in Wi-Fi and offers easy access to selected online
services, including PredictWind weather forecasts and routing, via marina or
smartphone hotspots. Or use the Wi-Fi to mirror the screen of your Vulcan 7 to
a compatible smartphone or tablet, for a cost-effective dual-station solution
you can take anywhere on board.
