System overview
The H5000 instrument and autopilot systems combine unique sailing features with race-
proven technology in a straightforward package. Developed for blue water cruisers and
racing yachts alike, the range brings powerful system options to match your exacting
requirements. From an ultra-fast CPU to a convenient web-browser interface access, full-color
and custom displays and a dedicated autopilot controller, the H5000 system was developed
to provide the best instrument and autopilot system available. The H5000 range comprises
several units which network with other onboard electronics including the Zeus range of chart
