What navigation systems are used on yachts?
Yachts use various navigation systems to ensure safe and accurate sailing:
GPS (Global Positioning System): The main system for location and navigation. Modern GPS receivers provide data on the coordinates, speed and course of the yacht.
Chartplotters: Electronic devices that display maps and integrate GPS data, providing a visual representation of the route and surrounding objects.
Autopilots: Automatic control systems that help maintain the yacht’s course without the constant intervention of the captain.
AIS (Automatic Identification System): An automatic identification system that allows you to see other vessels in the field of view and exchange data on location, speed and course.
Radar systems: Used to detect objects and navigate in low visibility conditions such as fog or night.
Echo sounders: Devices for measuring the depth of water under the keel of a yacht, which helps to avoid shoals and underwater obstacles.
Paper nautical charts and compasses: Traditional navigation tools that remain important in the case of
failure of electronic systems.
