Tresco TrackPilot
automated steering and smartracks for inland navigation
Tresco TrackPilot allows you to connect Tresco's navigation software (Navigis ENC-viewer) with your already installed auto pilot to steer automatically along routes. There is no need for extra hardware installations. The selectable routes can be your earlier sailed tracks, your own waypoints, the track of a vessel-in-front or Tresco's optimized SmarTracks. The advantages of Tresco TrackPilot are: more comfort for the skipper, less fuel consumption and less rudder drive wear.
