Experience Advanced Autopilot Technology
The GHP 20 steer-by-wire marine autopilot system brings our leading-edge marine autopilot technology to vessels equipped with the Yamaha Helm Master system.
With a GHP 20 for Steer-by-Wire aboard your boat, you no longer need to be tied to your helm. In addition to holding its course in a virtually all weather and wind conditions, the system can perform a variety of pre-programmed trolling and search procedures. Plus, with a compatible Garmin network chartplotter and BlueChart g2 Vision® charts, you gain optional features like Auto Guidance, which automatically steers GPS routes.
The GHP 20 Steer-by-Wire?s patented Shadow Drive technology gives you the security of knowing you maintain control even when the autopilot is engaged. The Shadow Drive system automatically disengages the autopilot if the helm is turned, giving you the freedom to maneuver the boat. The autopilot automatically re-engages when you hold a steady course.
On Vessels with the Yamaha Helm Master steering systems, the GHP 20 Steer-by-Wire autopilot provides unmatched autopilot performance. It works seamlessly with the Optimus 360?s revolutionary joystick steering/shift/throttle control system to negotiate the boat forward, backwards, diagonally, sideways or on its axis. Dynamic gain adjustments based on tachometer information provided by the Optimus system means the GHP 20 Steer-by-Wire offers optimal performance at all speeds.
The GHP 20 is operated using up to 3 GHC 20 control units. The GHC 20 communicates with the autopilot system via your NMEA 2000® network, so autopilot heading data can be shared easily with other devices. This enables MARPA and chart overlay when connected to a Garmin chartplotter.
