Less copper
More wireless for comfort and lighting. The McConaghy MC86GT installation is described with over 4,000 ft less cable than a traditional build.
Quasar Marine / For boat builders
One system. The whole boat.
You pick the equipment. Quasar sets the framework.
Bring power, switching, HVAC, engines and cameras into one open system, with unified displays from the cabin to the helm. Give the owner one app and a boat that is simpler to use.
Less copper. Unified displays. Easy to use.
The same picture
The Marine system brings the same widgets to displays from 4 in to 22 in: cabin, saloon and the ribbon above the helm.
One app
Give owners, crew and guests a common view of the connected boat. Onboard help can operate without internet with the appropriate local AI hardware.
50%+Target reduction in engineering cost per boat

1 appFor the connected boat
Figures come from the October 2026 Marine brochure. The engineering reduction is a target; MC86GT cable and configuration figures describe that project.
One open framework.
Every connected system joins the boat's local framework. The displays share its picture; connected cloud services add the Twin, vessel history and remote support.
Choose your equipment
- Power: Victron, lithium and solar
- Switching: 10 to 30 A digital circuits
- HVAC: climate by zone
- Engines: NMEA 2000
- Cameras: marine IP cameras
Quasar ONE / Master
Onboard devices share an open framework. Quasar ONE connects the boat to predictive health; Quasar Master adds the open source integration layer and local automations.
One view, everywhere
- Helm ribbon: overhead displays
- Saloon: 3D boat, media and navigation
- Cabins: 4 in wireless displays
- Phone: one app
A connected boat history
The Quasar Twin is a living copy of the boat. The vessel log records starts, stops and faults with timestamps. Remote support can see changing behaviour before the owner calls.
Conceptual architecture. Connected systems, display options and supported functions are confirmed for each boat. Cloud functions need connectivity; onboard voice and vision require the specified Master hardware option.
Useful at every screen.
Wireless cabin controls
A 4 in display needs only 12 V power. Bring up the widgets for the connected items the owner wants to monitor or control.
Cameras and media
Bring marine IP camera views to the glass. Supported webOS screens join the unified display system, including saloon layouts with media and navigation.
A record for the hull
Keep a timestamped history of starts, stops and faults for service, the surveyor and the next buyer. The vessel log is a subscription service after the first year.
The sailing layer.
Steer by wire
Electric steering is described with rudder feel at the helm and up to four stations. The Marine brochure cites a 90% energy saving compared with hydraulics.
Regen by wire
Advanced software controls energy recovery through patented DC-DC technology. The Marine brochure describes 60%+ more energy than sail drives.
Auto sailing and docking
The proposed sailing layer combines waypoint sailing with cameras and radar for docking, with lidar and phase-coherent sensing described from 40 m to 200 mm.
These are the capabilities and performance figures described in the Marine brochure, not a universal specification for every hull. Agree the equipment, operating envelope and commissioning requirements for your build with Safiery.
The boat keeps the controls.
The cloud adds context.

- Vessel connectionONE / Master
ONE retains readings. Master adds Home Assistant and local scenes.
Connected on-board roles, not a serial data path. Supported equipment supplies readings to ONE; Glass is a display and control interface, not a required relay to the cloud.

One traceable record of the finding and outcome.
Conceptual architecture from the Marine and ONE brochures. Confirm connected systems for each build. Gensets and watermakers have no remote command path; HVAC is request-only.
Your boat, set up by AI.
AI services are not available for online purchase yet.
Token rates, payment terms and an account-linked upload and review service must be confirmed before you can order. No AI service charge is included in a Glass hardware cart.
The brochure describes this service: send photos, lists and a spreadsheet. The AI service centre does the work and sends a link for you to check. Each service is priced separately, based on the AI tokens used.
Boat Customisation
Upload photos for a 3D image of your own boat. Choose the items to animate, photograph products and serial numbers to find manuals, and describe your rules.
Review each returned image, highlighted item, manual and condition. Accept it or ask for a redo.
Engineering Configuration
Use the service's spreadsheet template to list device name, location, device ID, channel and digital output. Upload it for review.
You confirm before the AI configures the system. Afterwards, you receive a link to the configuration tables. Supported open systems include STAR, Shelly and Victron through a GX device, plus Matter through Master.
Asset Management
Link your Quasar ONE ID and upload the service companies you use, with the products each company covers. A photographed list or spreadsheet works.
Review the returned mapping of service companies to the equipment on your boat.
The planned service process
- Log in, set up credentials, register a payment method and link your Quasar account.
- Send the material for the selected AI Treat.
- Review the link returned by the service. Accept it or request a redo.
- Confirm the proposed configuration before it is applied.
This page describes the brochure's process. It does not provide service login, payment registration, spreadsheet download, uploads or configuration approval. Do not send credentials or payment details through an enquiry.
One model proposes. Another checks.
The described AI harness uses Anthropic to prepare the work and OpenAI to check the same boat data and Safiery's rules independently, without the first model's reasoning.
Nothing reaches the boat until the owner confirms. The boat applies its own device rules and records the outcome in the vessel log.
| Device class | Control described by the AI harness |
|---|---|
| Lights, fridges and pumps | Remote switching through the harness |
| HVAC plant | Request only; the boat sequences it |
| Gensets and watermakers | No remote command path |
Conceptual service architecture. AI Treats use open protocols; closed systems are not configured. AI-token charges are separate from hardware and from the vessel-log subscription after the first year.
