Furuno NAVPILOT 711C Color Autopilot System for Inboard Vessels - Professional Marine Course Keeping Technology

Experience effortless navigation with Furuno's revolutionary NAVPILOT 711C color autopilot system, featuring self-learning adaptive technology and advanced course-keeping capabilities for inboard and sterndrive vessels.

Revolutionary Self-Learning Autopilot Technology

The Furuno NAVPILOT 711C represents the pinnacle of marine autopilot engineering, delivering unprecedented course-keeping accuracy through its revolutionary self-learning and adaptive software algorithm. This intelligent system continuously monitors and adjusts to your vessel's unique steering characteristics, including speed, trim, draught, tide effects, wind conditions, and weather patterns. Every parameter is stored in system memory and continuously optimized, making each voyage more precise than the last.

From your first dock-side setup through countless voyages, the NAVPILOT 711C learns your vessel's steering behavior, enabling real-time dynamic adjustments that deliver exceptional steering accuracy and fuel efficiency improvements of up to 2.5% or more through selectable "Economy" and "Precision" navigation modes.

Advanced Color Display with Day/Night Visibility

The NAVPILOT 711C features a sunlight-viewable color day/night graphic display that provides exceptional visibility during bright daylight conditions while preserving your night vision in low-light environments. The intuitive interface displays critical navigation data including heading deviation, cross-track error, ship's speed, depth, water temperature, and wind information when connected to compatible sensors.

The display's perfect cosmetic match with NavNet TZtouch systems ensures seamless integration with your existing Furuno navigation electronics, supporting up to 6 displays in a single network configuration.

Professional-Grade Course Control Features

SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST Technology

The optional SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST features provide unrivaled steering comfort and control through a unique interface with your vessel's hydraulic hand steering system. POWER ASSIST mode delivers speed-based, power-assisted steering that dramatically reduces manual helm effort during maneuvering situations, potentially replacing separate electric and engine-driven power steering systems while reducing system complexity and operational costs.

FishHunter Mode for Precision Fishing

The exclusive FishHunter mode transforms your autopilot into a precision fishing tool. When connected to compatible Furuno sonar/sounder or radar systems, the NAVPILOT 711C can perform square, zigzag, circle, orbit, spiral, or figure-eight maneuvers around fish or bird targets at user-selected distances. This feature also serves as an advanced Man Overboard (MOB) recovery system.

SABIKI Mode for Drift Fishing

The innovative SABIKI mode enables precise autopilot control while drifting astern at slow speeds, perfect for sabiki fishing, jigging, and bottom fishing techniques. This specialized mode allows you to focus on fishing while the autopilot maintains precise boat positioning.

Comprehensive Integration and Compatibility

Kick back, relax and let NavPilot steer you to your destination!

FURUNO's NavPilot is a revolutionary autopilot with a sunlight viewable display designed for a variety of vessels. It utilizes a self-learning and adaptive software algorithm, and plays the ultimate role in course-keeping capability. NavPilot dynamically adjusts essential parameters during navigation, such as vessel speed, trim, draught, tide and wind effects, dead band, weather and more. These parameters are stored in system memory and continuously optimized to make the NavPilot more versatile.

The new NavPilot 711C features a color day/night graphic display, offering much better sunlight viewability during the day while not affecting your night vision when the sun goes down.

Self-learning and adaptive software

From the first dock-side setup through the last voyage you made, NavPilot continues to learn your vessel's steering characteristics, allowing for real-time, dynamic adjustments to make the boat's steering more accurate.

SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST features provide Efficient and Effective Helm Steering Control

The optional SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST features provide a unique interface to the vessel's hydraulic hand steering system, providing unrivaled comfort and control of steering directly from any manual helm on the vessel. These two modes greatly reduce steering effort and enhance the safety of your autopilot.

The POWER ASSIST mode incorporates the SAFE HELM concept and provides speed-based, power assisted steering, which greatly reduces manual helm effort in maneuvering situations. POWER ASSIST is a unique helm-activated assisted steering feature that can augment or replace separate electric and power-robbing, engine-driven power steering systems on many vessels. POWER ASSIST reduces steering system complexity and costs while increasing economy.

SAFE HELM and POWER ASSIST modes will require the optional FPS8 Power Steering Module and an appropriate HRP Pumpset.

If you are interested in utilizing the ""SAFE HELM"" and ""POWER ASSIST"" features, it is highly recommend that, when installing the NavPilot 700 Series Autopilot, the optional FPS8 Power Steering Module is purchased and installed at the same time. This will eliminate the need to re-plumb the hydraulic system and run additional connection cables in the future.
