Ruddermaster – Precision Rudder Angle Indicator for Confident Steering
The Raritan Ruddermaster provides immediate visual confirmation of your rudder’s position, helping boaters maintain precise course control and improve maneuvering accuracy. Whether you're docking in tight quarters, making minor heading corrections, or relying on autopilot, the Ruddermaster eliminates guesswork with real-time rudder angle display.
As the helm turns, a durable sending unit relays the rudder’s position to a central calibration box, which then sends precise input to the analog meter display. This seamless communication system allows the meter to show exactly how far the rudder has deviated from center, helping the captain make quick, accurate adjustments without oversteering.
Ideal for monitoring both manual steering and autopilot systems, the Ruddermaster offers intuitive feedback that enhances safety and navigational awareness. It’s especially valuable during docking, anchoring, or navigating through challenging weather or currents—when knowing your rudder angle at a glance is critical.
Available in a variety of styles, including splash-proof models for exposed helms and repeating units for multiple station readouts, the Ruddermaster adapts easily to any onboard configuration. If you need a second display at a flybridge, pilothouse, or remote helm station, adding a repeater is simple and ensures visibility wherever steering input occurs.
Backed by Raritan’s trusted engineering, the Ruddermaster is a compact yet powerful addition to your marine instrumentation. It installs cleanly into most vessel dashboards and integrates smoothly with existing steering systems. With its quick response, reliable performance, and rugged design, this essential tool delivers confidence and clarity every time you take the helm.
Upgrade your situational awareness and steering accuracy with the Raritan Ruddermaster—a small investment in control with big returns in navigational safety.
