New Gear: B&G Intros New High-Performance Plotter

February 26, 2026

B&G just announced the new Zeus® SRX chartplotter, a breakthrough in sailing navigation that combines cutting-edge performance, sleek design, and seamless integration for the ultimate luxury sailing experience.

 “Whether you’re racing or cruising, this chartplotter delivers uncompromising speed, clarity, and control. It’s more than navigation – it’s the ultimate expression of performance and luxury, seamlessly integrating every system on board so you can focus on what matters most: the sailing experience, explains Yasser Nafei, President, Electronic Solutions for Navico Group.

The Zeus SRX sets a new benchmark with its ultra-premium, glass-to-edge display, crafted exclusively for the world’s most commanding yachts. Powered by the latest NEON™ operating system, the SRX is optimized for large-format screens, delivering the most intuitive and powerful user experience yet. The new activity bar keeps your core tools within reach and auto-hides when not in use, while quick access buttons make layers, overlays, and navigation instantly accessible – reducing mental load so sailors can stay focused on the journey. With faster boot times, instant chart redraw, and fluid app transitions, every interaction feels immediate and effortless.

Designed to be the heart of the sailing system, Zeus SRX brings every element of the vessel together through a single, intuitive interface. From core B&G instruments, radar, and wind sensors to advanced sailing features, all data flows seamlessly into a single, intuitive interface. Integration with systems, like CZONE®, brings full command over lighting, power, entertainment, and navigation – effortlessly connected for the ultimate sailing experience. Additionally, the fully customizable Instrument App enables users to view system sailing data on a set of digital dashboards, create personalized layouts by dragging gauges and widgets onto a blank canvas, and tailor each gauge to their preferences.

Navigation reaches new heights with C-MAP® X-Gen charts, delivering unparalleled detail and functionality. Sailors can explore DISCOVER® X charts for instant zoom, rich local detail, and dedicated night mode – or upgrade to REVEAL® X charts for stunning shaded relief and satellite imagery.

X-Gen charts unlock revolutionary features like C-MAP Safety Alerts, which automatically alerts sailors of hazards ahead, from shallow waters to buoys. The integrated X-Chart Manager allows direct updates and upgrades from the Zeus SRX, including custom area downloads for near-instant access.

Tahiti—Updates from Paradise
