GyroPilot Plus is a high-performance, add-on sensor for the GyroPilot v3. It provides SBAS corrected position information that is fully independent of the ships' own AIS position, giving you the high-quality data required from precise navigation. This is best suited to pilots who require an independent position for finer operations or manoeuvres (like passing locks) and to augment the information coming from the Pilot Plug. The GyroPilot Plus is the same lightweight and portable design as the GyroPilot V3. The GyroPilot Plus can be purchased as an add-on to your existing GyroPilot v3, or purchase both together in a combo package for a discounted price.

How to get information for wind & current limits to be potentially encountered by thrusters – or current? - this will be described in this movie:
- Measure Drift speed, due to beam wind with no propulsion;
- Measure drift speed using full thrusters
- Estimate wind & current limits to be potentially encountered by thrusters – or current...
- Finally there is a simple formula as Rule of Thumb: the transverse drift speed is about 7-8% of wind speed!
