7-inch standalone chartplotter

Garmin introduced the GPSMAP 720s – the first touchscreen controlled stand-alone marine chartplotters with radar capability and built-in sonar at an affordable price that’s easy to justify for any boat or budget.  The GPSMAP 720s features a built-in 1kW capable sonar transceiver that can clearly define fish targets and terrain features as far down as 2,000 feet to keep you apprised of what’s happening under the surface.

Garmin’s chartplotter GPSMAP 720s features a standard radar port that lets you connect with any Garmin GMR™ series marine radar for target scanning on your chartplotter screen.  Whether you’re adding radar now or in the future, you’ll enjoy the convenience of “plug-and-play” installation, as well as the power, range and high-definition targeting of Garmin’s proven radar offerings.  These units are the first non-network radar-capable units offered in Garmin’s marine product line up, and offer the perfect solution for the cost-conscious mariner who wants to take advantage of radar capabilities without the network price.  In addition, these new units offer full NMEA 2000 connectivity and make it easy to monitor engine, fuel, autopilot, weather and other onboard sensor data via the chartplotter.

Like the other Garmin touchscreen marine products, these units feature a sophisticated and elegant “flat-screen” physical design that complements today’s modern boats.  Boasting a sleek 7-inch super-bright, waterproof (IPX7 standards) touchscreen display, the GPSMAP 720s offers unprecedented extremes of brightness for daytime readability with super low-level dimming for optimum night vision. With a built-in high-sensitivity GPS receiver, these new chartplotters are the perfect navigation solution for a single station vessel, and with their small footprint, can fit onboard your vessel where other larger units cannot.  The built-in GPS receiver provides installation location flexibility, and therefore can also effectively serve as the back-up navigation station on a larger yacht.

Benefit for the professional fishermen like you, Fishfinder 350C features with dedicated button on its right side for you to quickly adjust the setting you need for “Gain”, “Range”, and “Zoom” function.

 

Don’t you worry your fish finder being stolen! You can easily remove Fishfinder 350C from mount and take the device with you off boat by its brilliant mounting design.

GPSMAP 78s, the newest of Garmin’s next generation marine-friendly GPS handheld feature a new contemporary industrial design with rubber side grips that’s ideal for navigating the great outdoors. Furthermore, it supports Thai and Bahasa Indonesia, which makes it much more user-friendly in Asia.

Like earlier GPSMAP generations, these new handhelds will keep the same soft-key user interface and overall sleek, easy-to-use design – including in a rugged and waterproof housing that floats. Other key upgrades to the GPSMAP 78s includes user-defined profiles and a 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass, which shows your heading even when you’re standing still. The new GPSMAP 78s also support wireless exchange of tracks, waypoints, routes and geocaches with compatible Oregon®, Dakota®, Colorado® and Foretrex® devices.

 

Weighing 7.7 ounces, the new GPSMAP 78s lasts up to 20 hours on two AA batteries. Each device has a high-sensitivity GPS receiver with HotFixTM, which automatically calculates and stores critical satellite information and can use that information to quickly calculate a position. The new GPSMAP 78s has 1.7 GB of internal memory and a microSDTM card slot for optional map data, so users have the ability to add additional BlueChart® g2 marine charts, topographic maps or CityNavigator® data for turn-by-turn routing on roads.
