Autopilot and related instruments

  • Raymarine EV-400 autopilot
  • Raymarine T2 electric ram on steering quadrant
  • Backup rotary drive unit in case of ram failure. Activated by flipping a switch

Excellent autopilot performance with little effort, as the Super Maramu is naturally very directionally stable.
Windvane mode available with apparent or true wind

  • Wind: Raymarine anemometer (2021)
  • Speed, Depth, Temperature: Airmar Tri-data for Raymarine (2025)
  • 4 configurable multi-function displays
  • 1 autopilot control display
  • 2 autopilot remotes (2025)

Plotter, AIS and others

  • AXIOM + 12 plotter with France / Mediterranean, Caribbean charts
  • Raymarine AIS 700 transceiver (2023)
  • Raymarine Quantum 2 radar (2023): displayable on the plotter alone or overlaid on the chart. Target tracking, guard zones, fantastic equipment.
  • Actisense W2 K1 NMEA WiFi gateway (2021) to retrieve NMEA data on a phone, computer or tablet
  • Fixed ICOM VHF
  • Handheld VHF
  • Web Boat 3G/4G receiver (requires a SIM card, mounted at the mizzen masthead)
  • Badboy WiFi amplifier

Outdated electronics

  • 24–12V converters: x5 to power AIS, legacy GPS, SSB radio
  • FURUNO GP 500 GPS
  • ICOM FS 1550 SSB transceiver (antenna fitted at the stern)
  • MLR FX312 GPS
  • A sextant! I’m almost ashamed to list it here; I would have loved to take the time to learn how to use it.
