B&G®, the world's leading sailing electronics manufacturer, has debuted the new B&G Triton™ Edge sailing processor this week, delivering the most advanced processor ever to hit the sailing market.
Triton Edge is the brains behind a sailboat's electronics and on-board data systems.
With the Triton Edge, ultra-fast processors deliver an enhanced suite of accurate sailing data to your B&G Triton and Nemesis™ displays, B&G Vulcan™ or Zeus™ chartplotters. Information which can also be accessed via webserver, allowing you to upload data recordings to the cloud to be viewed, replayed, and analyzed in the B&G Companion App.
"Triton Edge is designed for sailors running a cruising or dual-purpose cruising/racing system and provides the sophistication and expanded information you need to sail faster and make better decisions out on the water without over-complication," said Tracy Cox, Global Brand Manager, B&G. "It provides sailors and skippers with a wealth of benefits, primarily by expanding on sailing data and enhancing accuracy through improved calibration and management of data sources."
B&G's sailing processors have been tried, tested and perfected in some of the toughest and most intense sail racing conditions on the planet including The Ocean Race, Round the Island Race, and SailGP and offshore sailing programs like Boris Hermann's Team Malizia and 11th Hour Racing and - with the launch of the new Triton Edge, B&G delivers the same kind of performance for cruisers and club racers.
"Our heritage and sail racing DNA inform our product line-up and are what makes B&G stand out,our advanced sailing processors like the new Triton Edge are no different," said Cox. "You'll be faster, smarter and have more intelligent information with Triton Edge."
Enhanced sailing data and additional sailing-specific features include advanced start line calculations, advanced true wind data and autocalibration, boat speed calibration and correction, wind correction for heel/trim angle, improving the sailing data displayed to the user and guiding the autopilot. Triton Edge also simplifies otherwise complex calibrations through AutoCal calibration routines.
