Garmin GHC 50 Autopilot Nautical Instrument

Control your boat with confidence

When you are ready to discover paradise, the GHC 50 autopilot instrument will help you navigate easily, regardless of where the water takes you.

Easy readability and navigation

The bright 5′′ WVGA touch screen is not only attractive, but also has an anti-reflective screen that makes navigation easy and uncomplicated.
