Intuitive Autopilot Control

The point of a dedicated autopilot controller is to enable immediate access to auto-steering functionality, placing key controls within easy reach. Designed with that purpose in mind, the AP44 includes an intuitive interface with just four buttons and a push-to-enter rotary control dial.

Automated Turn Patterns

Your Simrad autopilot can do much more than keep you on course. The AP44 gives you easy access to a range of built-in turn patterns designed to assist with fishing, diving, or just making a quick and efficient U-turn.

Simrad Continuum Steering

Every Simrad steering innovation builds upon a legacy encompassing over sixty years of autopilot development, which continues today at Simrad Yachting’s autopilot research hub in Norway.

Easy Setup with Auto-Tuning & Calibration

Autopilot installation and commissioning doesn’t have to be difficult or time-consuming. The AP44 offers automatic tuning to ensure optimal auto-steering performance, with a simple on-screen commissioning process including dockside configuration and sea trial.

NAC-3

The NAC-3 Autopilot Computer is the brain behind your autopilot system. NAC-3 contains the control algorithms developed to helm a yacht across a broad range of weather conditions and sea-states, alongside the electronics needed to operate a hydraulic or mechanical drive unit, while also interfacing with other components, including heading sensors and rudder feedback units. The NAC-3 was designed for boats 10 meters (33 feet) or greater in length and is rated to operate high-current hydraulic drives, mechanical drive units, and solenoid valves with a current rating of 30 Amps continuous (50 Amps peak).

HS65 GNSS Compass

Simplicity of a compass and a GNSS receiver in one. Heading, Rate of Turn, Pitch, Heave, and Roll. Accurate heading based on dual GNSS data, free from magnetic interference. Easy Installation with NMEA2000 connectivity, Heading derived by dead reckoning using accelerometers when the signal is lost. Supports satellite-based augmentation systems (SBAS). Multiple mount options. Unique Selling Points: Heading accuracy without the restriction of magnetic interference to account for. Heading Accuracy of <2° RMS 10Hz ideal for Autopilot and MARPA applications. <90seconds cold start, Dead Reckoning for heading up 3 minutes following loss of satellite data. Position <1 Meter 10Hz Pitch/Roll Accuracy <1.5° RMS Sleek design Backup magnetic compass with <3° RMS* Heave <30CM RMS Supports GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BEIDOU, QZSS1 Constellation options with SBAS Options for Flush, Raised or Pole mount 640mm/2ft NMEA2000 Fly-lead Low profile mounting adaptor for various installation types.

SteadySteer™ Flow Switch

Smoother steering. Use the helm to control the autopilot for greater ease of use. Steer manually through turns - convenient manual override. Autopilot engages automatically on straight legs. Seamless and intuitive boat control. Fuzz-free autopilot operation for hydraulic steering. Navigate safely with SteadySteer, functionality for autopilot systems that allows boaters to take immediate, manual control of the vessel through turns without having to disengage the autopilot. Coming out of turns, SteadySteer automatically reengages the autopilot once a new heading is established.

Control the Autopilot with the Helm

SteadySteer automatically disengages the autopilot when you turn the vessel manually and then reengages the autopilot when you have established a new heading. No key-presses, no alarms – just turn the helm.

Less Distractions – Just Drive

No need to look at a display or push buttons to change course; merely point the bow to your destination.

Solid Floating Shelves 🛠️🏠
Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 4, Size: 15.7in
I have installed four sets of the black floating shelves in my office. They are made of high quality materials, featuring a sophisticated black woodgrain finish with a natural texture. Supposedly, each unit can handle up to 22 pounds, though I would not recommend testing that limit with your vintage bowling ball collection if you value your flooring. They are awesome. The value is good for a set of two. Each shelf measures 22x7x1 (56x17x3 cm) inches, providing a decent amount of storage for books or decor. The installation was straightforward since the hardware for multiple wall types was included. They work well in the kitchen for spices or in the bedroom for personal belongings. One tip for a secure fit: use a level during installation and make sure the bracket is flush against the wall before sliding the shelf on, or your photos might look like they are sliding off a mountain 📐 These shelves offer a clean, modern look and stay stable once mounted correctly. They are a practical choice for adding functional display space to any room 🖼️

Good looking shelves and easy install - skip the included drywall anchors
Color: Black, Number Of Shelves: 2, Size: 22in
I installed these shelves in a bedroom to get things off my dresser and some decor. Once mounted they look really nice. The black finish looks clean and modern and they blend in well with the room. Installation was pretty straightforward. The metal bracket mounts to the wall first and then the shelf slides over the bracket. As long as you take your time lining things up it’s a simple project. One thing I strongly recommend is not using the white plastic self-drilling drywall anchors that come with the kit. I’ve used that style before on other projects and they tend to strip out easily and leave larger holes in drywall. I used better anchors instead and the shelves mounted much more securely. The rest of the hardware worked fine and once installed the shelves feel solid and hold items well. Pros - Clean modern look - Easy installation - Feels solid once mounted - Good size for books or decor Cons - The small level included isn’t very accurate — use your own level - One of the metal brackets was slightly bent out of the box but straightened out easily Helpful tip: Use your own level and better drywall anchors if you have them. It makes installation easier and the shelves will mount much more securely. Final thoughts: For the price these are nice looking floating shelves that install easily and work well for light storage and decor.
