B&G

B&G has been at the leading edge of yacht instruments and autopilots for almost 50 years and has recently been acquired by marine electronics specialist, Simrad. B&G has gained a valuable position as a recognised supplier of marine electronic equipment to the high end yachting industry that have endured the world’s toughest events, such as the Vendée Globe, Volvo Ocean Race and Jules Verne.

B&G’s Technical Director, David Minors, sees research and development onboard boats such as Ecover with sailors of the caliber of Mike Golding as, “key to pioneering leading edge technology"

C-MAP

C-Map Electronic Charts are used by more navigators than any other electronic chart format, from the smallest yacht to the largest Naval Vessel.
C-Map charts provide un-paralled levels of accuracy, detail, coverage and updates.

C-Map's NT+ cartography is available in C-Card cartridge format, for navigators who own a dedicated plotter made by manufacturers such as Navman, Simrad, Furuno , Standard Horizon and Raymarine. It is also available on a CD for those who use their pc with navigation software such as Winchart, Maxsea, Deckman for Windows, Seatrack, or Raymarine Raytech Navigator.

To circumnavigate the world, Golding uses many C-MAP charts. “The C-MAP charts are accurate, crisp and detailed and without the cluttered look of many other solutions on the market. I’d be lost without them!”
