Aft helms — sailing at the water’s edge
The twin helms place the helmsman at the outer edge of the boat, combining carbon steering wheels, integrated sail controls and expansive B&G displays into a comfortable, fully equipped sailing station.
Forward helm — command, under cover
The protected forward helm brings full control inside the saloon, combining panoramic visibility, integrated B&G systems and immediate access to the sail pit for confident passagemaking in any conditions.
Safety, measured in seconds
The three-helm layout is designed for confidence and control. Keeping the crew protected, connected to the sail controls, and ready to respond instantly in any conditions.
Most boats ask you to compromise on helm position. The VMG 53 simply gives you the right helm for the moment — exposed and engaging, or protected and centralized.
