Simrad HS75 GNSS Compass

Unlock Precision Navigation on the Water

Navigating challenging waters demands more than guesswork— it requires unwavering reliability. The Simrad HS75 GNSS Compass steps in as your vessel's steadfast guide, blending cutting-edge satellite technology with intuitive design. Whether you're chasing big game offshore or maneuvering a yacht through tight marinas, this compact powerhouse delivers heading data that keeps your course true, even when conditions turn tricky.

Boat owners rave about how it transforms autopilot performance, eliminating the wobbles from traditional compasses. No more frustrating deviations from magnetic interference or sluggish GPS estimates— the HS75 locks in position and direction with surgical precision, right from startup.

Heading Accuracy That Outshines the Rest

Picture this: your boat adrift in zero visibility, yet your instruments hold steady. The HS75 achieves an impressive 0.75° RMS heading accuracy by tapping into multiple global navigation systems—GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, and QZSS. This multi-constellation approach ensures robust signal reception worldwide, far surpassing basic magnetic compasses that falter near metalwork or electronics.

Stationary or slicing through waves at speed, integrated gyro and tilt sensors maintain flawless heading output. During brief satellite blackouts, dead reckoning kicks in seamlessly, bridging gaps so your radar overlays and chartplotters never skip a beat. It's the go-to choice for captains who prioritize safety and efficiency.

Lightning-Fast Position Updates for Dynamic Boating

High-speed pursuits on the water call for position data that matches your pace. Refreshing up to 20 times per second, the HS75's receiver feeds real-time coordinates to your network, ideal for powerboating or systems demanding split-second accuracy. SBAS compatibility sharpens fixes in supported regions, while rapid initialization gets you underway without delay.

For anglers deploying sonar or racers plotting split-second tactics, this rapid refresh rate means smoother tracks and fewer errors, turning potential mishaps into confident maneuvers.

Beyond Heading: Full Spectrum Motion Insights

The HS75 doesn't stop at direction— it computes rate of turn, heave, pitch, and roll, streaming this wealth of data via NMEA 2000. Autopilots optimize turns with rate of turn intel, while sonar units counter wave-induced noise using heave compensation for crystal-clear bottom reads.

These metrics elevate your onboard ecosystem, stabilizing displays, enhancing radar returns, and fine-tuning stabilization on flybridges or gimbals. It's like having an extra crew member dedicated to motion mastery.

Installation Simplicity Meets Rugged Durability

Say goodbye to complex setups. At just 35 cm long and weighing under 2 lbs, the HS75 mounts effortlessly on flat surfaces or poles, with plug-and-play NMEA 2000 connectivity. Its IPX7 waterproofing shrugs off spray and submersion, thriving from -40°C to +70°C.

Low power draw (3.2W typical) suits battery-conscious setups, and 95% humidity tolerance handles the saltiest environments. Pair it directly with Simrad autopilots or radars for instant synergy, minimizing wiring hassles on retrofits or new builds.

Real-World Reliability for Every Voyage

From coastal cruisers to bluewater explorers, the HS75 earns trust through proven performance. Skip the upkeep of gyrocompasses and the unreliability of rate compasses— this GNSS solution offers commercial-grade stability in a boater-friendly package. Integrate it into your NMEA 2000 backbone, and watch your vessel's responsiveness soar.
