The arm of the GRF 10 is connected to the rudder of the boat and transmits information about the position through the sensor to the sailor so that he knows where the rudder is, which gives him greater peace of mind when leaving a position of stopping, docking, starting or moving at reduced speed.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn addition, GRF 10 allows sailors to:\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e
