No more sifting through cluttered returns; fish pop out distinctly against the backdrop.

Why Boaters and Anglers Choose This Setup

• Low-Profile Elegance: Glass dash design fits flush, enhancing your helm's modern aesthetic while withstanding marine environments.

Unlocking the Power of C-MAP Discover Charts

Preloaded with C-MAP Discover, these charts go beyond basic outlines. High-resolution bathymetry reveals underwater topography in stunning detail, helping you identify drop-offs and humps where fish congregate. Custom depth shading lets you highlight safe zones tailored to your draft, reducing grounding risks.

Easy-Routing automates waypoint creation, factoring in no-go areas and fuel stops for efficient passages. Tides and currents data keeps you ahead of dynamic conditions, while full-featured vector charts provide razor-sharp coastlines, ports, and hazards. It's like having a local guide embedded in your display.

Tailored for Your Boating Lifestyle

For Serious Anglers: ForwardScan peers ahead to scout structure before you arrive, while SideScan maps sprawling reefs. FishReveal cuts through noise, showing bait schools and predators in real-time—proven to boost catch rates on competitive tournaments.

For Coastal Cruisers: Pair with Halo radar for fog-piercing detection, and let Easy-Routing handle multi-leg trips. Engine data overlays keep performance in check, alerting you to issues before they sideline your adventure.

Center Console Owners: The compact yet powerful build suits open-water warriors. OP40/OP50 remote compatibility means control from anywhere on deck, and Ethernet ports expand to multiple screens for crew-wide visibility.

Pro Tips for Peak Performance

1. Mount the transducer at the hull's flattest point for optimal sonar returns—avoid air pockets.
2. Calibrate depth shading post-install to match local soundings for hyper-accurate readings.
3. Use Wi-Fi for over-the-air updates during off-season storage to greet spring with the latest features.
4. Network with compatible Simrad accessories for a unified ecosystem that grows with your needs.
