Skipper DL 850

The Skipper DL 850 is a dual axis speed log, working on the Doppler principle, providing longitudinal and fore/aft transversal ship speed relative to the seabed or the water. The DL 850 can always measure the speed of the vessel through the water and over the bottom nearing 150 m of water (270 kHz version). The system includes a single sensor mounted in a Tank or Sea Valve, and using the vessels gyro, can predict the vessels longitudinal and transversal movement anywhere on the vessel. The DL 850 provides accurate navigation parameters measured as they happen, and presented in a logical, user friendly way.

Doppler technology is commonly considered the gold standard of speed measurement as it measures remotely, away from the effects caused by the vessel itself. The Skipper DL 850 presents the critical parameters on screen and can be interfaced with bridge systems and repeaters. It can also present depth, water temperature and ROT parameters.
