Zeus Sailing Navigation System - 12" Display
Part #: 000-10242-001
A multifunction navigation system designed specifically for sailboats. B&G's Zeus Sailing Navigation System provides the sailor with total control of navigation onboard the yacht.
The Display
At the core of the Zeus system lies a high specification multifunction display. Its powerful processor allows high speed access to a comprehensive range of capabilities, while a combination of direct access keys, keypad and rotary dial ensure that features can be activated, and data input and manipulated, in an easy and straightforward fashion.
Integrated Navigation System
The B&G Zeus display comes with an integral chartplotter with ultra-fast redraw and pre-loaded regional charts. Its in-built multifunction capabilities additionally equip it to act as a hub for a wide range of B&G and Navico instruments; displaying data in combinations, layouts and formats selected by the user, and allowing the full control and input of data.
Key Features:
Weather
The unique weather functionality of the B&G Zeus allows the user to forecast data overlaid on to the chart to gain a clear understanding of the conditions that they are likely to face.
- Wind Speed and Direction
- Barometric pressure with pressure centre indicators
- Manual time step control - select any available forecast time
- Animation option shows how weather systems are likely to develop and allows the sailor to take appropriate steps to prepare, or route around
- Cursor Info feature allows quick assessment of the forecast at a particular location and time
Sail Navigation
Important sailing data is overlaid onto the Zeus chart, enabling an assessment of the most efficient route to be sailed rather than a simple straight-line "power boat" waypoint to waypoint route.
- Water and Ground vectors show the effect of tide and leeway on your course
- Mark and Boat Laylines are displayed. Easily assess whether the boat will be able to clear a headland or obstacle on its next tack. Laylines can be configured to display
- Manual (user) wind angle target
- Actual True Wind Angle from instruments
- Target True Wind Angle (H3000 instruments with Polar tables only)
- Option to correct layline positions for measured tidal flow
- Historic min/max layline positions allow the navigator to make a safe decision to tack for a headland or waypoint based on the recent range of True Wind Direction
- Time and distance to layline information is provided for each tack, allowing preparation time for maneuvers
Integration with B&G H3000 Instruments
Direct integration with B&G H3000 instruments via H-Link allows the B&G Zeus navigation software to assess the conditions using the most accurate data possible and enables the configuration of instrument functions.
Charting
