Furuno FR8065 6Kw 12.1 Color Requires Antenna & Cable — Product description
Discover Superior Visibility on the Water with Advanced Radar Technology
Navigating challenging marine environments demands radar that cuts through rain, fog, and clutter to reveal what's ahead. This 12.1-inch color radar display harnesses cutting-edge digital signal processing to deliver crystal-clear images, helping skippers spot hazards, track vessels, and plot safe courses even in the toughest conditions. Whether you're running a high-speed sportfisher or maneuvering through busy harbors, its intuitive controls and automated adjustments minimize distractions so you stay focused on the journey.
Effortless Operation with Smart Auto Features
One-touch buttons handle gain, sea clutter, and rain clutter adjustments automatically, ensuring optimal performance without constant tweaking. Store up to three custom presets for varying sea states—from calm bays to stormy swells—switching seamlessly to match your surroundings. The wide-angle SVGA LCD offers brilliant 32-level color echoes visible from any angle, even under direct sunlight.
High-Speed Precision for Demanding Scenarios
Pair it with a compatible high-speed antenna for optional 48 RPM rotation, ideal for narrow channels or fast vessels where every second counts. Superior short-range detection picks up small targets like buoys or kayaks as close as 25 meters, enhancing safety during close-quarters maneuvering.
State-of-the-Art Signal Processing for Unmatched Clarity
Drawing on proven UHD digital radar tech, this unit excels at distinguishing rain squalls from actual surface targets. Watch unnecessary echoes vanish while real threats like approaching boats remain sharp. True Motion Echo Trails plot vessel paths accurately, giving you instant insights into relative speeds and headings—crucial for collision avoidance.
True Trail and True View Modes: See Movement in Real Time
True Trail Mode paints colorful paths behind moving objects, letting you gauge intentions at a glance. Switch to True View for fluid echo motion synced to your heading, eliminating the lag that plagues traditional head-up displays. Combine with Head-up, Course-up, North-up, and Zoom functions for versatile situational awareness.
Full-Screen and Off-Center Viewing Power
Maximize your display real estate in Full-Screen mode for detailed overviews, or zoom off-center on points of interest. Toggle overlays off to declutter the view, revealing hidden targets behind text or data.
Advanced Target Tracking and AIS Integration
Track up to 10 targets simultaneously with precise vector data on course, speed, and CPA (Closest Point of Approach). When linked to AIS, monitor up to 100 vessels, displaying names, headings, and trajectories—even those obscured by weather or your own superstructure. Zoomed target displays with persistent trails keep risky intersections front and center until they're no longer a threat.
Ideal for commercial operators or weekend warriors in congested waters, this setup provides peace of mind by extending your radar's eyes beyond line-of-sight limits.

State of the art signal processing and UHD™ digital radar technology!
The 12.1"" color radar FR8005 series features state of the art signal processing, which makes it easier to identify targets in heavy rain and poor visibility. The FR8005 radar can discern between rain and surface reflections, providing the ability to find and track the movement of rain clouds as well as removing unnecessary echoes. For tracking the movement of other vessels at sea, ""True Motion Trails "" can be displayed as well as AIS/TT target-tracking with a zoom display function. When the vessel is in motion, the radar echoes move smoothly on the main display thanks to the ""True View Mode.""
Target-Tracking Zoom Display Function
Even during rainfalls or severe weather conditions, radar echoes are clearly displayed, and unnecessary echoes can be removed instantly with ease. Compared with current radars (FR8002 series) the technology for removing sea, rain and snow clutter has been greatly enhanced utilizing FURUNO’s state of the art knowledge in digital signal processing. When using the Target mode, vessels close by and vessels on intersecting courses are automatically displayed zoomed in. These targets will remain displayed for as long as they pose any concern. Target Trails are also displayed, making it easy for the user to determine the movements of individual vessels.
True Trail Mode
When using the True Trail Mode, moving objects will show up on the main screen with a colorful trail. These trails make it possible to see the movement of nearby vessels in the blink of an eye.
True View Mode
The radar echoes move smoothly on the main display thanks to the ""True View Mode"". The True View Mode is based on the head-up mode. During the radar sweep, the echoes move according to the heading of your ship. Since the echoes move in real-time, the discrepancy between an observed target and what is displayed on the radar screen is greatly reduced.
Full-Screen Mode and Off-Center Mode
Make use of the whole display surface with the Full-Screen mode, giving you more information when making important decisions. When combining Full-Screen mode with Off-Center mode any target or point of interest can be observed in detail. The overlay information can be turned off, to observe targets obstructed by the text as well as providing an unobstructed radar view.
Target Tracking and AIS Display
The Target Tracking (TT) feature continously tracks and provides positional information for up to ten targets. An AIS device-equipped FR8005 series radar can track target heading, name, speed and direction of movement. With AIS it is possible to identify and track the movement of other vessels in heavy fog, during nighttime and otherwise difficult conditions. Another benefit is that with AIS you can identify obscured targets that the radar signals cannot reach, giving you more time to act. AIS can display up to 100 targets simultaneously, TT can display up to 10 different targets simultaneously.
