Quick and easy instrument upgrades

With the end of the season nearing, now is the time to action upgrades to legacy B&G instrument systems. Join the many hundreds of satisfied boats who have found an upgrade with A+T to be the best, quickest and usually lowest cost way to provide a top-level electronics system for the next 10-15 years.

Why?

  • Keep the same Fastnet cabling/wiring throughout the boat

  • Keep any existing displays and sensors that are working well

  • Only upgrade the instruments that are needed

  • Use any combination of existing B&G and A+T displays

  • A simple swap out for B&G H2000, H3000 or WTP systems

  • A+T Technical sales team will help design your new system and provide ongoing 24/7 technical support during installation and beyond

Results

3 circumnavigations and 23 refit projects later I can confidently say offshore sailing instruments dont get any better than A+T! Naturally they were the only choice for our recent refit of SY Invictus the Swan 77.

Fantastic support! We needed a new anemometer for a big regatta after our B&G failed. We called A+T on Wednesday and we had the new one at our hotel in Port Huron, MI USA on Friday. So glad we found you. Timothy McGuire
