The nautiNav IALA Buoy Light Simulator is a unique device that provides an authentic representation of the light schemes for IALA buoys.
I currently have 25 in build, estimated time to completion is one week, back orders are now open, first come first served.
Designed, developed and produced entirely by nautiNav it has been a product that has been received with universal satisfaction, we have had instructors who have had early units which are still going on the original batteries! It's safe to say that nothing like this exists for the value we offer it at.
- All IALA Buoy light characteristics
- Sector light simulation
- High-intensity RBG LED for the clearest output
- Multiple modes (random and pre-selected)
- Runs on 3 AAA standard batteries
- Simple and Clear menu system
- Handmade in the UK by nautiNav
The device represents all 12 light patterns, and contains Red,White and Green sector lights in the reverse. The high intensity LED in the top section is bright enough for daylight use (but works brilliantly in the dark at a distance, allowing you to simulate a not dissimilar experience of a light set 2 miles out).
The device has different modes including a random play mode where even the instructor doesn't know what is coming up, all this is controlled by big push buttons and information is displayed on a colour OLED screen.
Powered by 4 AA batteries (supplied), this can be carried on in hand luggage as required, we recommend that you source some form of protective case to protect your investment in your training aids.
New Versions
There are now two versions. Model A (Original) and Model B (For standard buoys), please indicate which version you require at checkout.
In order to use the Model B fully, you will need to have purchased one of the packs containing the standard buoy models.
We do not carry great stocks of these are they are all hand made, thus if we are out of stock please send us a note and we can advise when the next batch is available.
NOTE: The pdf shown below is an older version, the functionality has not changed expect that we have removed the rechargeable batteries and the case design is now as shown in the main images.

Great tool to demo the previously discussed flash patterns of buoys and the random selection is great for a quiz. 🙂
