Vanchor-NG

Turns a cheap trolling motor into a GPS-guided boat autopilot and virtual anchor.

Servicefree

Vanchor-NG turns a cheap trolling motor into a GPS-guided autopilot and virtual anchor system that runs offline on a Raspberry Pi, holding a spot or heading, or navigating a planned route while correcting for wind and current. It can also run entirely in a built-in simulator with no hardware for testing. It's aimed at anglers and boaters who want autopilot and anchor-hold features without buying expensive proprietary marine electronics.
