Enhance Your NavPilot with Extra Safety and Versatility

The Furuno SafeHelm2 Sensor/Adaptor Pack offers an invaluable upgrade to your NavPilot system, providing enhanced safety and control for your vessel. Specifically designed for the NavPilot 300/700/711C series, the SafeHelm2 ensures seamless manual steering whenever needed, without the hassle of disengaging the autopilot.

Instant Manual Control When You Need It

SafeHelm2 is a revolutionary sensor that detects when the operator takes manual control of the helm while the autopilot is engaged. It temporarily switches the NavPilot to manual steering, giving you full control for a set time. This feature is essential for quick course adjustments to avoid obstacles or sudden changes in navigation without deactivating the autopilot. Once the obstacle is cleared, the system automatically re-engages the autopilot mode.
