It slips over the display and keeps UV, salt, spray, and fog off the screen and bezel between outings, so your 7-inch plotter reads clear and looks new for years. Cheap insurance for gear that costs a lot more than the cover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour B\u0026amp;G Vulcan 7R earns its spot on the helm, so it's worth protecting when you're not using it. This is the genuine B\u0026amp;G suncover made for the Vulcan 7R chartplotter, part number 000-14228-001. It slips right over the display and shields the screen and bezel from the stuff that wears marine electronics down fast. Think UV, salt, spray, and fog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere's why it matters. A chartplotter screen lives outside in direct sun. Left uncovered season after season, UV hazes the display, fades the graphics, and can craze the surface over time. Salt film settles on the glass and dries into a dull layer that's a pain to buff back off. Morning fog and dew leave their own marks. A cover that lives on the unit whenever you step away is about the cheapest insurance you'll ever buy for a screen that costs a whole lot more than the cover does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Vulcan 7R is B\u0026amp;G's 7-inch sailing chartplotter, built for cruising and club racing with features like SailSteer plus built-in GPS and Wi-Fi. This cover is cut to that exact housing, so it sits snug over the bezel instead of flapping around the way a generic slip-on does. Getting it on and off takes a couple of seconds. When you're rigging up and ready to go, pull it off and stow it in a helm pocket. Coming off the water, pop it back on before you walk away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a natural fit for how sailors actually use a boat. If your Vulcan 7R stays mounted at a pod or bulkhead helm while the boat sits on a mooring or in the slip between weekends, this cover is what stands between your screen and months of sun. Cruisers who leave the boat rigged for the season get the most out of it. Club racers who keep the same electronics set from spring through fall do too. Trailer sailors get value here as well, since a covered screen rides out the drive home without catching road grime and glare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA few honest notes on fit and use. This is the factory cover for the Vulcan 7R specifically. The Vulcan 7 and 7R share the same 7-inch housing, so the footprint matches, but if you run a larger Vulcan or a different B\u0026amp;G display, you'll want the cover made for that model instead. On a fully exposed helm in a hard blow, any slip-on cover can work loose, so if you ever run at speed with it on, take a second to check it's seated. Honestly, most sailors pull it off before getting underway anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCare couldn't be simpler. Rinse it with fresh water when you rinse the boat, let it dry, and it keeps right on doing its job. There's nothing to wire, nothing to adjust, and nothing to break. A quick wipe-down now and then keeps grit from scratching the screen when the cover goes back on. It weighs next to nothing at about 0.190 pounds and stores flat in any locker.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat you're getting is straightforward, and that's the point. It's a purpose-made protective cover, not a case or a mount, so it won't add bulk to the helm and it won't get in the way of your existing bracket or flush mount. Leave your Vulcan 7R installed exactly as it is. The cover just goes on top when the screen isn't in use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuying the genuine B\u0026amp;G part means it's the right shape the first time, no trimming and no guesswork. We stock it because it's the kind of small, sensible piece of gear that quietly saves you money down the road. If you've got a Vulcan 7R on the boat, this one belongs in the same order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGenuine B\u0026amp;G suncover for the Vulcan 7R chartplotter, part 000-14228-001, cut to the exact housing for a snug fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShields the display and bezel from UV that hazes and fades screens over time\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlocks salt spray and fog from settling on the glass and drying into a dull film\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSlips on and off in seconds, so it's easy to protect the screen between outings\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at about 0.190 lbs and stores flat in a helm pocket or locker\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMade for cruising and club racing sailors who leave the boat rigged season to season\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePurpose-made protective cover that won't interfere with your existing bracket or flush mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized B\u0026amp;G reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhich B\u0026amp;G chartplotter does this suncover fit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eIt's the genuine cover made for the B\u0026amp;G Vulcan 7R, part number 000-14228-001.
