Plot Course to Paradise
Corepack Compatibility: This corepack works with vessels that have Volvo Penta inboard performance systems and sterndrive joystick systems.
Solid-State 9-Axix AHRS: With its advanced solid-state 9-axis AHRS, the Reactor 40 can be mounted nearly anywhere, in any orientation. It even reduces power consumption, minimises heading error and more.
Reacts to Water Conditions: Hold course on the sea - this autopilot reacts to conditions, remain confident even when the boat is pitching or rolling.
Simple Calibration: All autopilots require commissioning and calibration. Reactor 40 makes it quick and easy.
Wireless Remote Capabilities: Control the autopilot from anywhere on the boat by using a compatible Garmin devices, including the Reactor autopilot remote, select quatix marine smartwatches and more (requires a compatible Garmin chartplotter or GHC 50 autopilot instrument).
Connect to Everything on the Boat
Includes GHC 50: Combine the Reactor 40 corepack with the GHC 50 autopilot instrument to add a dedicated, touchscreen autopilot display to the helm. Plus, the GHC 50 shares data and settings with Garmin MFDs and other installed Garmin devices.
Powerboat and Sailing Features: When connected to a compatible Garmin chartplotter or GHC 50 autopilot instrument, all Reactor 40 corepacks offer powerboat and sailing features, including heading hold and step turns - plus wind hold and tack/jibe when paired with a wind sensor (sold separately). It can even gain additional benefits such as the follow route and Auto Guidance+ features.
