The horizon of navigation is changing, thanks to hybrid solutions such as those developed by BlueNav. From January 2025, the company will be offering equipment combining advanced functionalities, such as a virtual anchor and a speed regulator, to simplify life for sailors while preserving marine ecosystems.
Innovative functionality: the virtual anchor at the service of ecosystems
The virtual anchor, one of BlueNav's new features, maintains a boat's position without the need for a physical mooring. Relying on instruments such as GPS and a compass connected via NMEA2000, it adjusts the ship's position according to currents and wind. This system is particularly well-suited to sensitive areas, avoiding damage to the seabed and facilitating manoeuvres.
Thanks to this system, yachtsmen can concentrate on their sailing or their stay on board, while reducing their environmental impact.
Intelligent autopilot for simplified navigation
BlueNav's integrated autopilot is designed to meet the needs of modern navigators. Compatible with all major chartplotter manufacturers (Garmin, Raymarine, Simrad...), it enables precise route programming. This feature automatically compensates for the effects of wind and currents, guaranteeing optimum trajectory while reducing energy consumption.
A hybrid solution for sustainable navigation
BlueNav takes an eco-responsible approach by offering innovative hybrid technology. This system optimizes engine use, reducing both fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Boaters can thus combine performance with respect for the environment, meeting the growing demands of sustainable boating.
BlueNav's vision: making navigation more accessible
Through its innovations, BlueNav aims to democratize advanced technological solutions. The integration of functions such as the virtual anchor or intelligent autopilot meets a dual ambition: to improve user comfort and promote environmentally-friendly navigation.
According to Hervé Frouin, the company's CEO, these technologies represent a major step forward: " BlueNav's "complete solution" approach transforms boating industry standards by offering safety, simplicity and ecology on board. "
