Hydrovane International Marine Inc

Imagine sailing – powered by the wind, and steered by the wind. Just you, your boat, the wind and the ocean.

Hydrovane has been steering dreams for over 50 years. We would be delighted to be a part of yours.

Hydrovane is both: a self-steering windvane AND an emergency rudder/steering system

British-built since 1968, Hydrovane is the most robust windvane self-steering system available on the market.

Hydrovane is proud to be a partner of the World Cruising Club, supporting sailors as they turn their bluewater cruising dreams into reality.

Hydrovane is both:

  • A Self Steering Windvane System: A completely independent mechanical system (ie. non-electrical) that steers the boat on a wind-based course. Easy to operate, with no lines in the cockpit, and excellent performance on all points of sail and in all conditions. 
  • An Emergency Rudder/ Steering System: Inherently a second Rudder and Steering System for your boat. It is the strongest Emergency Rudder and Steering System available today. Always in place, nothing to set-up – takes the fear out of losing your rudder or breaking your vessel’s steering mid passage or close to shore.
