ANNOUNCING the AP48 Autopilot Controller from Simrad, a premium dedicated control head for Simrad Continuum autopilot systems.
Featuring an optically bonded 4.1-inch full colour display and modern glass-helm styling, the AP48 provides an ultra-wide 170-degree viewing angle and full access to advanced Continuum steering features.
The new AP48 offers users the same intuitive interface as the compact AP44, but with a larger aluminium rotary control dial, dedicated ‘dodge’ keys, and other extended keypad controls.
Designed to do much more than keep a vessel on course, the new controller gives users easy access to a range of built-in turn patterns to assist with fishing, diving, or just making a quick and efficient U-turn.
With a compatible echosounder module to enable depth contour tracking, the AP48 can also be set to auto-steer to maintain a constant water depth beneath the vessel – perfect for following depth contours while fishing without having to define complex multi-waypoint routes.
