Professional-grade IMO-compliant GPS navigator delivering uncompromising accuracy for commercial vessels and large yachts. The Furuno GP170 sets the standard for reliable position fixing with its advanced GPS chip technology, anti-jamming capabilities, and 10 Hz update rate that ensures steady tracking even in challenging maritime conditions.
Why Maritime Professionals Choose the GP170
Commercial operators demand absolute reliability from their navigation systems. The GP170 delivers with full IMO MSC.114 (73) and IEC 61108-4 compliance, making it the trusted choice for ocean-going ships, ferries, and professional vessels where positioning accuracy can mean the difference between safe passage and costly delays.
Advanced Anti-Jamming Technology
Navigate with confidence through busy shipping lanes and electronic interference zones. The GP170's enhanced noise rejection capabilities provide robust anti-jamming protection while delivering superior multi-path mitigation when paired with compatible GPA020S or GPA021S antenna systems.
Bridge System Integration Made Simple
Seamlessly integrate with your existing bridge electronics including radar, AIS, ECDIS, autopilot, and echo sounder systems. The LAN interface (IEC 61162-450) enables efficient network integration, while the front-panel USB port allows quick export/import of routing data and settings.

Furuno's GP170 is a highly stable and reliable position fixing system for ocean going ships, large yachts, ferries and commercial vessels. It is an ideal position sensor for Radar, AIS, ECDIS, Autopilot, Echo Sounder and other navigation and communications equipment. The designed GPS chip and antenna deliver enhanced stability and precision in position fixing. Noise rejection capabilities are incorporated in the new receiver, delivering anti-jamming function as well as a high level of tolerance towards multi-path mitigation. Tolerance towards multi-path mitigation is further enhanced when the GPA020S or GPA021S antenna unit is utilized.
A variety of display modes are available including Plotter, Course, Highway, Data and Integrity. The Integrity display mode delivers a highly accurate Skyplot presentation of currently viewable satellites, status on GNSS/SBAS signal reception including strength and SNR, and elevation angles of available satellites, as well as detailed information about available beacon stations.
