Descrición da acción

Grazas a esta axuda renováronse dous equipamentos electrónicos a bordo da “Peregrina” por novas opcións máis sostibles, sustituindo o equipamento de radar e de piloto automático.
Equipamento de radar: A antena de radar FURUNO 1832 substitúiuse pola antena de radar RAYMARINE QUANTUM.

Co Q24D DOPPLER acadouse unha mellora enerxética. Esta mellora conséguiuse mediante a evolución da tecnoloxía de radar, obtendo un consumo moito menor; así como un software evolucionado e mellorado para unha navegación máis precisa, mellorando significativamente a seguridade a bordo.

Equipamento de piloto automático: O equipamento de piloto automático SIMRAD AC12 e a pantalla ZEUS TOUCH de 7″ foron substituídos por unha pantalla B&G NAC-3 + Triton2 e un controlador de piloto Triton2.
