Vakaros ATLAS 2 GPS Compass is the future of sailing technology.

 

Atlas 2 is the first sailing instrument capable of dual band, L1 + L5 GNSS reception. Measure positional accuracy in centimeters, only on the Atlas 2.

 

The state-of-the-art magnetic sensor is 4 times more sensitive and capable of resolving heading changes as small as 0.1°. An advanced motion fusion algorithm and adjustable damping keep the compass steady—even in the roughest conditions.

 

The Atlas 2 is a staple on teams from the 52 Super Series to ILCA training groups. No boat is too big, or small, to benefit.

 

If you win the start, you control the fleet. It’s why we refined every aspect of starting for Atlas 2.

Starting screens deliver the situational awareness you need to get to the line on-time and at full speed. But, don’t just take our word for it; ask any number of top pros & World Champions. They’ll tell you the same thing—Vakaros delivers starts that help them win.
