B&G's Vulcan range of sailing chartplotters take the guesswork out of sailing. Whether you’re an experienced sailor or just starting out, Vulcan is packed with features that will help you get the most from your time on the water.
We’ve designed our Vulcan chartplotters to be as intuitive as a tablet or smartphone. The low-profile, super-bright display is visible even in direct sunlight, and the responsive touch screen gives fingertip control, even in flying spray and a rough sea state. Pinch-to-zoom, swipe and tap controls let you input waypoints and routes and view chart details with ease.
Let Vulcan guide you safely to your destination: place waypoints and routes with a single tap on the chart and let Vulcan take you there with clear, intuitive graphics and data for guidance. Add a compatible chart card to benefit from autorouting and let Vulcan’s intelligent software choose the best and safest route to your destination.
Enjoy safe and precise navigation with a Vulcan sailing chartplotter and C-MAP DISCOVER charts on your sailboat. Offering ultra-wide coverage for the US and Canada, C-MAP DISCOVER charts include full-featured Vector Charts, Custom Depth Shading, Tides & Currents and the very best of C-MAP high-resolution Bathymetric contours, including integrated Genesis® data. Planning a day on the water is simple with C-MAP Easy Routing™ and always have the latest DISCOVER chart data with 12 months of free online updates. If you would rather select your own chart, Vulcan is compatible with C-MAP, Navionics®, NV Digital and more.
Put Vulcan at the heart of your boat and take control of your B&G autopilot from your Vulcan’s touchscreen. With an installed controller elsewhere, the intuitive controls can be accessed from any screen with a simple tap and allow you to alter course, tack, gybe, sail to wind or compass. Take advantage of the advanced sailing algorithms that make B&G Pilots as good as the best helmsman — all from your Vulcan’s touch screen.
Know exactly where you are at all times with an inbuilt, high accuracy 10Hz GPS receiver.
Get up and running quickly: Vulcan chartplotters are optimised for sleek flush mounting, standing only 8mm proud of the bulkhead for a low-profile ‘glass helm’ look. Alternatively, mount in minutes using the supplied bracket on horizontal, vertical or overhead surfaces.
