Designed for coastal cruising and club racing

The great B&G Vulcan 12 Multifunction Sailing
Chartplotter with C-MAP MAX-N Australia/New Zealand Chart
bundle is ideal for coastal cruisers and club racers. This
easy-to-use, intuitive 9-inch multi-touch screen is packed with
B&G’s unique sailing features including SailSteer and
RacePanel. Simply integrate with your existing system, expansion is
simple as Vulcan is NMEA 2000, Broadband Radar, ForwardScan and
autopilot ready; and features built-in 10Hz GPS and Wi-Fi.

Easy to use touch screen
The Vulcan chartplotter is designed 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.

Simple to add Waypoints and Routes
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.

Autopilot Control
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.

Mirror the screen on your phone
Vulcan’s sunlight-viewable, waterproof display gives you a reliable
navigation display at the helm or chart table – and now you can see
it from anywhere on board on your smartphone or tablet. Built in
WiFi allows you to mirror and control the screen from anywhere on
board using the Link App on your mobile device, for a
cost-effective dual-station solution. Back up your settings and
waypoints, or connect to a Wireless hotspot or marina WiFi to
download weather forecasts and software updates straight to your
device. Connect your phone via Bluetooth to read and respond to
text messages from the chartplotter’s display.

A range of mounting options
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.

Dedicated Sailing Features for Cruising and
Racing
You can use Vulcan as a simple chartplotter as soon as you connect
it to power, or for more advanced features, add to speed, depth and
wind instruments. Let Vulcan take care of the complex calculations
– leaving you free to relax and enjoy the sailing.

SailSteer
See all the data you need at a glance on one easy-to-read display.
See crucial wind, speed, tide, heading, course over ground, layline
and waypoint information, overlaid on one screen to ensure you have
the information you need at your fingertips.

Laylines
Let Vulcan do the hard work: see your course and minimise your time
spent beating with Laylines overlaid on your chart. See which way
is best and ensure you tack in the right place to help you get to
windward as efficiently as possible. Laylines even take into
account tidal effects and wind shifts to plot the quickest course
to the next waypoint.

SailingTime
Plan effectively with SailingTime and know how long it will take to
get to a waypoint, even if it’s dead upwind. SailingTime calculates
the time you’ll spend on each tack, taking into account wind and
tidal effects, to give you an accurate ETA at your destination.

RacePanel
Be on the line when the gun goes with RacePanel. Enjoy easy-to-use
features previously only enjoyed by Pro navigators to ensure you
get the best start in the fleet, with time, distance and
positioning information on a single clear display.
