Every Captain Needs A Co-Pilot
Designed for powerboats and sailboats, the Reactor 40 autopilot gives an extra hand, explore paradise worry-free.
- The Reactor 40 mechanical/retrofit/solenoid corepack works with a wide variety of steering systems.
- Yes, it features a solid-state 9-axis AHRS. And yes, that means it can be mounted nearly anywhere.
- Even when pitching or rolling, this autopilot reacts to sea conditions to keep the boat on course.
- Just want to get on the water, Calibration is fast and easy. That’s the power of simple.
- Combine with a compatible Garmin chartplotter, and control the autopilot from anywhere on the boat.
- The GHC 50 autopilot instrument enhances the autopilot experience.
Plot Course to Paradise
Corepack Compatibility: This corepack works with direct or cable-actuated steering systems to support heading hold, wind hold, step turns and tack/jibe modes.
Solid-State STATE 9-Axis AHRS: With its advanced solid-state 9-axis AHRS, mount the Reactor 40 nearly anywhere, in any orientation. It even reduces power consumption, minimises heading error and more.
Reacts to Water Conditions: Hold course on the sea – this autopilot reacts to conditions, so remain confident even when the boat is pitching or rolling.
Simple Calibration: All autopilots require commissioning and calibration. Reactor 40 makes it quick and easy.
Shadow Drive Technology: Gain more freedom when manoeuvring the boat. This corepack allows for optional Shadow Drive technology to automatically disengage the autopilot when the wheel is turned.
Three Class Drives: Choose between class A, class B compact or class B drive units for the steering system (sold separately). All Garmin linear drives include built-in rudder feedback sensing.
Wireless Remote Capabilities: Control the autopilot from anywhere on the boat by using a compatible Garmin devices, including the Reactor autopilot remote, select quatix marine smartwatches and more (requires a compatible Garmin chartplotter or GHC 50 autopilot instrument).
Connect to Everything on the Boat
Includes GHC 50: Combine the Reactor 40 corepack with the GHC 50 autopilot instrument to add a dedicated, touchscreen autopilot display to the helm. Plus, GHC 50 shares data and settings with Garmin MFDs and other installed Garmin devices.
Powerboat and Sailing Features: When connected to a compatible Garmin chartplotter, all Reactor 40 corepacks offer powerboat and sailing features, including heading hold and step turns – plus wind hold and tack/jibe when paired with a wind sensor (sold separately). It can even gain additional benefits such as the follow route and Auto Guidance+ features.
Optional GRF 10 Sensor: For even more peace of mind, add the GRF 10 rudder feedback sensor to further enhance the autopilot’s performance (requires GHC 50 autopilot instrument or compatible Garmin chartplotter).
