The Garmin Reactor Autopilot Remote puts that freedom right in your palm, transforming how you manage steering on your vessel. Designed for boaters who demand precision and reliability, this wireless remote pairs seamlessly with your Garmin autopilot system, delivering intuitive control from anywhere on deck.
Effortless Steering with Gesture Control
Steering shouldn't feel like a chore, especially when conditions get tricky. This remote's standout gesture control lets you hold your heading or make quick corrections by simply pointing the device in your desired direction. It's like having an extension of your instincts, perfect for those moments when you need to scan horizons, handle sails, or assist crew without wrestling with controls at the station.
