Simrad GO12 XSE Halo+ Radar and 3in1 Bundle

Imagine navigating open waters with crystal-clear visibility of fish, structure, and approaching vessels, all from a single, intuitive 12-inch touchscreen. The Simrad GO12 XSE bundle transforms your boat's helm into a command center, blending high-resolution radar sweeps with lifelike underwater imaging to keep you safe and successful on every outing. Whether you're chasing trophy fish offshore or cruising coastal bays, this setup delivers pro-level performance without the complexity.

Unmatched Clarity on the Water

The GO12 XSE's widescreen display shines with a bright LED backlight, cutting through harsh sunlight for sharp, vibrant visuals even during golden-hour runs or foggy dawns. Touch controls mimic your favorite tablet—pinch to zoom charts, swipe between sonar views, or tap radar overlays with effortless precision. No steep learning curve; it's ready for weekend warriors and seasoned skippers alike.

Active Imaging 3-in-1: See What's Hiding Below

Dive deeper than standard sonar with the included Active Imaging 3-in-1 transducer. It combines medium and high CHIRP frequencies for precise fish arches and bottom detail, plus SideScan and DownScan Imaging to paint photo-like pictures of wrecks, drop-offs, and bait schools stretching hundreds of feet from your hull. Real-world anglers report spotting structure in murky water that traditional sonar misses, turning slow days into limits. Pair it with StructureScan HD compatibility for even finer detail when conditions demand it.

HALO20+ Radar: Instant Awareness, Zero Clutter

The HALO20+ dome radar pulses up to 20 nautical miles with pulse compression technology, updating in seconds for near-real-time views of squalls, buoys, and traffic. VelocityTrack Doppler processing highlights speeding boats or bird flocks over fish, a game-changer for collision avoidance and spotting hot bites. Its low-power, instant-on design warms up in under 10 seconds—no waiting when thunder rumbles. Mount it high on sportboats or center consoles for 360-degree coverage that feels like eyes everywhere.

Wireless Freedom and Smart Integration

Break free from the helm: mirror your GO12 screen to a smartphone or tablet via Wi-Fi, tweaking waypoints or checking returns from the bow. Built-in Bluetooth pairs with wireless accessories, while NMEA 2000 backbone connects to autopilots, engines, and audio systems for a unified ecosystem. North American boaters can add SiriusXM weather overlays for live forecasts right on your charts, keeping runs dry and productive.

Chartplotting That Keeps You on Course

Preloaded C-MAP Pro charts cover intricate coastlines, harbors, and inland waters with shaded relief, custom depth shading, and up-to-date nav aids. Easily swap in Navionics or other formats for global coverage. Smart routing suggests fuel-efficient paths around no-go zones, saving time and tank on long hauls.

Real Boaters' Edge: Tips for Peak Performance

• Transducer Placement: Mount the 3-in-1 low and centered on the hull for optimal water flow—test in calm water to dial in gain and sensitivity.
• Radar Tuning: Use Auto modes for starters, then tweak rain clutter for clean returns in storms; VelocityTrack shines post-sunset for surface life.
• Power Management: Its efficient draw suits battery banks on day boats; add a satellite compass for heading stability in chop.
• Customization: Split-screen sonar, radar, and charts simultaneously—resize panels to match your style.

This bundle shines on center consoles dodging crab pots, cruisers plotting sunset passages, or sportboats hunting pelagics. It's rugged for salt spray, with IPX7 waterproofing and simple surface-mount install.
