B&G Vulcan 9FS & Halo20 Radar Set | Ultimate Sailing Navigation and Safety

Elevate your sailing experience with the B&G Vulcan 9FS & Halo20 Radar Set, a complete, fully integrated package designed to provide unparalleled situational awareness and advanced sailing features. This powerful combination pairs the intuitive Vulcan 9FS chartplotter with the revolutionary Halo20 dome radar, creating the ultimate electronic nerve center for coastal cruising and club racing sailors. Navigate with confidence, detect hazards from near and far, and make smarter decisions on the water. This is one of the most capable navigation sets available, engineered specifically for the demands of sailing.

The heart of this system is the Vulcan 9FS, a feature-packed 9-inch multi-touch sailing chartplotter. Its super-bright display is easily viewable even in direct sunlight and can be controlled effortlessly with familiar pinch-to-zoom and swipe gestures. More than just a map, the Vulcan 9FS is your dedicated sailing co-pilot. Utilize B&G’s award-winning sailing features like SailSteer and Laylines, which overlay crucial sailing data directly onto your chart for at-a-glance understanding of your course, heading, and wind shifts. Plan your tacks with precision and optimize your performance whether you´re on a leisurely cruise or competing in a regatta. With built-in ForwardScan sonar capability (transducer sold separately), you can even see what lies ahead under the water, avoiding groundings in poorly charted or unfamiliar anchorages.

Paired with the Vulcan is the groundbreaking Halo20 Radar. This compact 20-inch dome radar redefines safety at sea with its industry-leading Pulse Compression technology. Unlike traditional pulse radars, the Halo20 delivers a crystal-clear image, providing exceptional target separation and detection at both short and long ranges simultaneously, with no dead zone. Its most critical safety feature is the integrated VelocityTrack™ Doppler technology, which instantly identifies collision hazards by color-coding moving targets. Vessels coming towards you are highlighted in yellow, while those moving away are shown in blue, giving you precious time to react. With InstantOn™ technology, the radar is ready in seconds from standby, and its low power consumption makes it ideal for sailboats managing their energy reserves.
