Optimized touch interface
The addition of Raymarine Evolution autopilot support gives boaters direct access to advanced navigation modes from the Alpha touchscreen. This interface makes it possible to efficiently manage different navigation modes, including heading versus wind angle. This feature is aimed at boaters seeking intuitive interaction for immediate control.
The Alpha's large display offers a large touchscreen interface, enabling users to change modes seamlessly in demanding navigation conditions. The interface is particularly well-suited to maneuvering, optimizing the legibility and precision of the information displayed for smoother, more responsive control.
3D navigation and visual tracking
Alpha's 3D navigation mode places the boat in an immersive perspective, with visual course error guides. This visual support makes it easier to anticipate turns, ensuring safe navigation, especially in unexpected situations. Boaters can also adjust their course around obstacles and easily return to their initial trajectory.
These tools, which are particularly useful in coastal or long-distance cruising environments, enhance the accuracy of decisions at sea, by providing a detailed view of the navigation environment and minimizing the risk of deviation.
Steering to Angle Vent" function
With the "Steering to Angle Vent" function, boaters can choose between apparent wind angle, true wind angle or boat polar to maximize sailing performance. By allowing this choice, Alpha ensures sailing adapted to the sailor's preferences and weather conditions.
This feature is designed for experienced sailors looking to optimize their performance, particularly when sailing inland or offshore. The different angle settings offer greater adaptability, allowing you to take advantage of changing conditions while maintaining the best point of sail.
Data visualization
Alpha, with this new version 3.0, offers enriched visualization of the boat's environmental and systems data. Boaters can configure digital, analog or histogram displays for a complete performance analysis. Each gauge is customizable, providing immediate access to essential data such as speed, depth or water temperature.
Customizable displays meet the varied needs of users, from beginners looking for simplified reading to experienced navigators looking for advanced data to fine-tune their navigation. This configuration option is also very useful for race teams, who can adjust their dashboard according to the priorities of each leg.
Video compatibility and integration with Raymarine systems
The Alpha display also supports networked video sources, including FLIR thermal cameras and Raymarine visible cameras. This compatibility with video surveillance equipment enhances safety by enabling optimal vision even in low light or reduced visibility conditions. As a result, boaters can get an overview of their sailing environment in real time.
