South Atlantic Self-Steering Gears®

  • Total Energy Independence: Eliminate the constant worry of battery drain or electronic failure. Our wind vanes harness the natural power of the wind and water, preserving your boat’s power for essential systems and extending the lifespan of your electronic autopilot.
  • Gale-Force Durability: Hand-built using 100% seawater-resistant alloys, our units are battle-tested to withstand the harshest offshore conditions. They are built not just for a season, but for a lifetime of voyages.
  • Versatile Integration: Whether your yacht is tiller or wheel-steered, our innovative designs ensure a seamless fit and optimal performance across a wide range of hull shapes and sizes.
  • Critical Safety Redundancy (The S 600 Advantage): The S 600 model offers a dual advantage: high-precision self-steering and a critical emergency rudder ready to deploy at a moment’s notice should your primary steering fail.
