Racing with Adrena First

A strong decision-making tool for regatta: ADRENA FIRST provides all features for planning the perfect start and assists the crew during the race by providing the right data at the right moment.

Sailing Offshore with Adrena First

ADRENA FIRST provides significant assistance for offshore sailing. The powerful routing module calculates the best route from the following settings: date and place of departure, destination, boat speed polars, wind conditions (GRIB files) and currents.

Dual routing – sailing and motoring – is taken into account. Fuel consumption is also estimated in order to anticipate the needs.

cruising with Adrena First

What is the distance left to the next mooring? How long will be the navigation? What heading should I take? What is the minimum depth to moore? How will turn the wind today, tonight?

Easy to set up, ADRENA FIRST provides a significant saving in time and an obvious comfort while ensuring a high-secure navigation.
