Simrad

<h3>Simrad: Precision Marine Electronics for Every Boater</h3><p><strong>Simrad Yachting</strong> has been a cornerstone of marine electronics since its founding in 1947. A world-class manufacturer of marine electronics, Simrad's product lineup spans navigation systems, fishfinders, chartplotters, radar, sonar, and more. Originally rooted in Norway, the brand has grown into a globally recognized name trusted by offshore anglers, weekend cruisers, and professional mariners alike.</p><h3>Integrated Systems Built for the Helm</h3><p>The Simrad marine electronics system is designed to serve as the central hub of a boat, smoothly integrating all equipment and functions into a single screen — connecting sonar, radar, autopilot, engine data, digital switching, lighting, entertainment, and more. This philosophy of seamless integration sets Simrad apart: rather than a collection of standalone devices, their ecosystem is engineered to communicate and work together.</p><p>At the heart of many Simrad setups are their Fishfinders, GPS &amp; Chartplotters. Simrad Yachting offers a variety of chartplotter and fishfinder options designed to meet the needs of every type of boat and activity, with key considerations including screen size, intended use, and the ability to integrate with other onboard devices. From the approachable GO series for smaller sportboats to the flagship NSS and NSO multifunction displays built for demanding offshore conditions, there is a Simrad chartplotter for every helm.</p><h3>Radar, Autopilot, and Advanced Navigation</h3><p>For situational awareness and hands-free operation on the water, Simrad's Radars &amp; Autopilots represent some of the brand's most respected technology. Simrad's CHIRP-enabled Broadband Sounder fishfinder technology, StructureScan 3D sonar imaging, and high-resolution Halo radar give boaters the tools to search deeper, wider, and farther. The HALO radar series in particular is renowned for its solid-state pulse compression technology, delivering exceptional target separation and collision avoidance capabilities.</p><p>Complementing the radar suite, Simrad's Autopilot Components bring precision steering control to vessels of all sizes. The AP44 Autopilot Controller combines Simrad Continuum steering technology with a full-color display, intuitive rotary dial and button controls, and a modern glass helm design. Whether navigating a long offshore passage or maneuvering in tight quarters, Simrad's autopilot lineup delivers reliable, responsive control.</p><h3>Sounder Modules and Navigation Accessories</h3><p>For boaters who want to expand an existing system, Simrad offers dedicated Sounder Modules that add powerful sonar capability to compatible multifunction displays. Simrad's sounder and processor modules are designed to integrate across networked helm setups, supporting dual monitors and dual radar systems while sharing cartography data throughout the network. These modules make it straightforward to upgrade sonar performance without replacing an entire display system.</p><p>Rounding out the ecosystem, Simrad's Navigation Parts &amp; Accessories — including transducers, mounting hardware, cables, and antennas — ensure every component of the system is installed cleanly and performs to its full potential. Simrad displays and electronics are designed to network seamlessly via NMEA 2000&reg; and Ethernet, making accessories an essential part of building a cohesive, high-performance helm.</p><h3>Why Boaters Choose Simrad</h3><p>Out on the water, the gear you choose makes the difference between uncertainty and confidence — and Simrad's commitment to quality and reliability is built to get you there. Whether you are rigging a bass boat for tournament fishing, outfitting a center console for offshore runs, or building out the helm of a luxury cruiser, Simrad's depth of product and proven integration make them a go-to brand for serious mariners worldwide.</p>

Product Details

The Simrad NAC-2 Core Pack provides all the essential components needed to upgrade your vessel with a Simrad Continuum autopilot system. Designed for rudder-steered boats up to 10 meters (35 feet) in length, this complete package includes the NAC-2 autopilot computer, RF25N rudder feedback unit, Precision-9 solid-state compass, and all necessary NMEA 2000® cables and connectors. Simply add a compatible hydraulic pump or mechanical drive unit to match your steering system, then control via a dedicated autopilot controller or Simrad multifunction display.

Key Features:

  • Complete core autopilot package with NAC-2 computer, RF25N rudder feedback, and Precision-9 compass
  • Simrad Continuum steering technology for intelligent, reliable autopilot performance
  • Recommended for vessels up to 10 meters (35 feet) in length
  • 8 amps continuous output, 16 amps peak power capacity
  • Clutch output capability (3 amps maximum)
  • Compatible with low-current hydraulic pumps, mechanical drives, linear drives, and solenoid valves
  • Virtual Rudder Feedback (VRF) technology for simplified installation on outboard and sterndrive boats
  • Plug-and-play NMEA 2000® connectivity for easy integration with marine electronics
  • Connects to heading sensors, rudder feedback units, autopilot controllers, and multifunction displays

NAC-2 Autopilot Computer: The NAC-2 serves as the central processing unit for your autopilot system, containing all electronics needed to operate hydraulic steering pumps or mechanical drive units. It interfaces seamlessly with heading sensors and rudder feedback units to deliver precise steering control. The standard power output supports operation of low-current drive pumps like the Simrad RPU80, mechanical drives such as the SD10, hydraulic linear drives like the HLD350, and solenoid valves.

Simrad Continuum Technology: Built on over 60 years of autopilot development and ongoing research at Simrad's Norwegian facility, the Continuum steering algorithm represents decades of marine expertise. This intelligent software continuously analyzes vessel movement and conditions to make optimal steering decisions, providing a smart pilot you can trust in varying sea conditions.

RF25N Rudder Feedback Unit: The included RF25N sensor connects to your rudder via mechanical linkage and continuously reports actual rudder position to the autopilot computer. This real-time feedback allows the Continuum algorithm to make precise steering corrections. The RF25N is ideal for inboard engine installations and larger vessels where accurate rudder position data is essential.

Precision-9 Solid-State Compass: This advanced heading sensor provides accurate directional data to your autopilot system with no moving parts for reliable, maintenance-free operation. The solid-state design delivers precise heading information in all conditions.

Installation: Plug-and-play connectors and industry-standard NMEA 2000® networking simplify installation, minimizing wiring complexity. All necessary cables and connectors are included in the pack. The system connects easily to autopilot controllers and multifunction displays located anywhere on board. For outboard and sterndrive boats, Virtual Rudder Feedback technology can eliminate the need for physical rudder feedback installation, reducing system complexity where mechanical constraints make traditional feedback units impractical.

rapido

found what i needed fast. could have used better description to determine is part was left or right hand side though.

Website is easy to navigate. Uncomplicated/ quick payment methods. Description of the part I ordered is incorrect. Part number is correct for rear window motor.

the site is well laid out. some products have very little product discription

great

Really couldn't beat the price, I tried to find a better price and couldn't. I just wish it didn't take so long to ship it. I placed my order 4 days ago on a Sunday night hoping to get it by Saturday. They just shipped it today on Thursday. So now I have to wait through this weekend and next week. I ordered other things from different companys on the same day and received from them already. So I guess that's price I pay for a good deal.

Why didn't I get the 20% Shipping Discount?

Excellent!!!

Return customer, excellent communication and fast shipping A+

Good so far.
