Top Features
New Scan Averaging Technology - A first for Garmin magnetron radar, scan averaging helps filter out sea clutter and interference to enhance the detection and display of consistent targets.
Angular Target-Size Adjustment - Pulse expansion and angular target-size processing techniques optimise on-screen object shapes for better interpretation at all range scales.
Faster Scanning Antenna - Rotation speeds up to 60 rpm improve the redraw rate for faster target updates.
True Echo Trails - A historical "trail" of boats on the water is displayed on the screen, removing relative motion influence to help quickly identify moving targets and potential collision threats.
Dual Range With Overlay - A single radar antenna is capable of providing split-screen, side-by-side images on a compatible chartplotter, with independent range setting and controls for both close and long range. Overlay either or both ranges on a chart.
Dynamic Auto Gain - Gain automatically adjusts levels to optimum settings for harbours, near shore and offshore in open waters.
See More Of What's Out There
Radar Overlay - See overlaid images on the chartplotter's map screen (with appropriate sensors, sold separately).
High-Resolution Radar - Pick out targets at a distance, thanks to narrow horizontal beamwidth and high antenna gain.
Dual-Radar Support - This provides redundancy and allows each display unit to pull data from different sources.
Dynamic Sea Filter - Radar gain automatically adjusts sea clutter for calm, medium and rough sea conditions.
Auto Bird Gain - Locate flocks of birds at the water's surface where baitfish are also likely to be found.
MARPA Target Tracking - Track up to 30 targets to help avoid collisions (with appropriate sensors, sold separately).
Guard Zone - Set the safety zone, and receive an alarm when an object enters the zone.
Range and Bearing Cues - Variable range markers and electronic bearing lines allow rapid measurements of distance and bearing to vessels and land.
