Simrad NSS12 evo3S Chartplotter/Fishfinder MFD
Simrad NSS12 evo3S Chartplotter/Fishfinder MFD — Product description
Unlock Next-Level Navigation with Lightning-Fast Processing
Imagine slicing through split-screen views or flipping between 3D charts and navigation perspectives in half the time. The powerhouse iMX8 processor delivers twice the speed of previous models, making every interaction feel effortless. Preloaded with detailed U.S. charts covering inland waterways and coastlines, plus a specialized C-MAP Reveal layer revealing Florida's ocean floor contours, you'll spot hidden fishing grounds before others even boot up.
This isn't just about charts—it's versatility. Seamlessly integrate with top providers like Navionics, CMOR, or Florida Marine Tracks for customized coverage tailored to your waters. Whether you're chasing offshore pelagics or mapping coastal structures, precision plotting becomes second nature.
Revolutionize Fish-Finding with Crystal-Clear Sonar Insights
Dive deeper into the water column with 1kW CHIRP sonar that tracks bottom detail and reveals fish arches with unmatched clarity. Dual transducer ports mean you can run multiple setups simultaneously—no more compromises on high-speed trolling or precise structure scanning.
Active Imaging paints picture-perfect images of wrecks, reefs, and bait balls, while ForwardScan peers ahead to map uncharted bottoms. In real-world scenarios, anglers report separating individual fish in heavy cover, turning frustrating days into limits. Paired with optional modules like the S5100 or Active Imaging 3-in-1, it handles everything from shallow bays to 3,000-foot depths.
SolarMAX IPS: Visibility That Conquers Any Light
Glare from the summer sun or polarized shades? No problem. SolarMAX IPS technology bonds the glass optically, eliminating fog and delivering 1,200 nits of brightness across ultra-wide angles. The 12-inch high-resolution touchscreen stays sharp from any helm position, even in rough seas.
Low-profile glass dash design blends seamlessly into modern consoles, while all-weather durability shrugs off extreme heat, shocks, and splashes (IPX6/7 rated). It's built for the relentless marine environment, ensuring your display performs when you need it most.
Intuitive Controls for Seamless On-Water Operation
The redesigned UI minimizes distractions with a dark theme that cuts light pollution across multi-screen setups. Expand the audio sidebar to full-page control, toggle chart orientations (North, Heading, Course up) with a single button, or glance at tide graphs without leaving your page.
Hybrid touchscreen and keypad hybrid shines in gloves or waves—precise enough for marking waypoints mid-fight, simple enough for family outings. Next-gen processor smooths every swipe, making complex data overlays feel intuitive.
Stay Connected: Wireless, Networked, and Future-Proof
Mirror your screen to phones or tablets via built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, pulling up radar overlays or sonar history from the comfort of the cabin. The Simrad app stores waypoints and spots for offline access, bridging on-water action with pre-trip planning.
NMEA 2000, dual Ethernet, NMEA 0183, and HDMI ports create expansive networks. Link engines for real-time fuel flow, autopilots for hands-free steering, or HALO radars for bird flocks signaling hot bites. Add FLIR thermal cams for night vision or WM-4 for SiriusXM weather overlays—complete awareness in one hub.
