NAC-3 VRF Core Pack

This pack includes core components you need to upgrade your boat with a Simrad Continuum autopilot system – just add a hydraulic pump or mechanical drive unit to suit your steering system, and choose a dedicated autopilot controller or Simrad multi-function display.

Designed for rudder-steered vessels up to ten meters (35 feet) in length, this pack includes the NAC-3 autopilot computer, Precision-9 solid-state compass, plus all necessary NMEA 2000® cables and connectors.

The NAC-3 was designed for boats 10 meters (33 feet) or greater in length and is rated to operate high-current hydraulic drives, mechanical drive units, and solenoid valves with a current rating of 30 Amps continuous (50 Amps peak).

Control with the Simrad AP44 Autopilot Controller, IS42 display and OP12 keypad, or a networked GO, NSS EVO2, NSS EVO3 or NSO Evo2 MDF.
