superior, high-resolution views of bottom detail, structure and bait
fish.
C-MAP Easy Routing and Navionics Dock-to-Dock Autorouting allows you
to navigate faster and easier with automatic route planning. Menu
activated, the feature automatically plots the shortest and safest
course based on a boat's draft, beam and height, creating a route around
a landmass, shoals and other fixed navigational hazards. Requires C-MAP
MAX-N+ charts, Navionics+ or Navionics Platinum charts.
C-MAP Navigation Palette enhances the readability of C-MAP charts,
especially near shore, making it easy to tell where the boat is in
relation to a channel, navaid, ledges and drop-offs, or a point of land.
MotorGuide Xi5 Trolling Motor Control lets you operate the Xi5
trolling motor from the touchscreen of your Simrad display, making it
easy to maintain your current position or navigate to a new one without

your vessel including outboard and inboard engines; fuel level and flow
meters; speed, heading, and water temperature sensors; and much more.
Create your own custom digital instrument displays, bringing a wealth of
information to even the most crowded dash while keeping a clean look
with as few gauges as possible.
Knowing the true depth beneath your hull can help you enjoy your time
on the water with fewer worries, and makes it easier to locate suitable
anchorages in unfamiliar waters. With built-in sonar, just add a
suitable sonar transducer for accurate, real-time depth tracking. A
scrollable depth history view lets you track back and easily set
waypoints for promising anchorages, while StructureScan Imaging combines
DownScan and SideScan sonar to offer a picture-like view of the bottom
beneath your vessel.
Using an optional ForwardScan transducer, this forward-looking sonar
technology provides a clear two-dimensional image of the bottom in front
of your vessel, allowing you to navigate shallow or poorly-charted
waters with confidence. With real-time updates and a forward-looking
view of up to eight times your current depth, ForwardScan lets you relax
and enjoy a safer day on the water.
Whether fishing is your life or just a casual hobby, any fishing trip
will benefit from the extensive array of built-in sonar technology on
the Simrad GO XSE. Add a suitable transducer, available separately or
bundled with your display, and the GO XSE works as a powerful fishfinder
with CHIRP-enabled broadband sonar for clear detection of fish
throughout the water column. With an optional HDI or TotalScan
transducer, the GO XSE also offers StructureScan HD sidescan imaging for
a picture-like view of fish-holding structure beneath and around your
boat.
If you're not at home on the water without a good soundtrack, the

HALO24/HALO20+ deliver the ultimate in situational awareness
Our revolutionary HALO24 and HALO20+ pulse
compression dome radars deliver industry-leading 360-degree sweeps every
second at close range, for the ultimate in collision avoidance of
stationary and fast-moving targets. With high-quality short, mid and
long-range detection, these feature-packed dome antennas ensure targets
can be seen vividly - even in the toughest environmental conditions.
Latest software updates feature a host of Radar panel and AIS user improvements (GO7 and above). These include:
- Visual enhancements to graphics and data displayed. Such as Plan
Position Indicator (PPI) design improvements and AIS targets displayed
as an outline of a vessel.
- A new menu structure, allowing easier access to commonly used controls and features.
- New AIS and MARPA target symbols providing additional information
for stationary and moving targets supported by better graphics for
clearer visual explanation.
- Moving Radar MARPA and AIS targets now display a graduated trail
showing the vessel’s past position history on the radar PPI. Duration of
history length can be customised.
- Simplification of displayed targets by combining MARPA and AIS targets for the same vessel as one symbol.
- A significant new safety and situational awareness tool, a Dangerous
Target Alert; appearing in a pop-up window, that not only alerts the
user, but guides them to the relative range and bearing of the dangerous
target.
- The introduction of new ‘adjustment handles’ making it easier to set Guard zones using a touch screen.

HALO20 radar offers a cost-effective solution
Our HALO20 Radar systems are a great way to add pulse
compression technology to smaller powerboats. See channel markers from
right off the bow to storm cells 24 nautical miles away. These compact
dome radars are easy to install, have low power needs, and wake
instantly from standby to give you radar coverage exactly when and where
you need it.
