Gps Chart Plotters from Garmin, Raymarine, Humminbird and many more. Navigation involves knowing where your boat is, knowing how to reach a destination, and ensuring that the boat does reach that destination. A Gps chart plotter can make references to hazards, points of land, and everything else on the chart. A plotter also runs software that allows you to easily accomplish other navigational tasks.     

Gps Fixed Mount units for marine and watercraft use. Provide the added safety feature of a Gps system that is mounted right into the console making it hard to remove and also making it possible to interface the unit with boat's other marine electronics such as the autopilot, satellite weather receiver, radar , fishfinder and much more. Check out all of our Gps Fixed mount systems from Garmin, Humminbird, Furuno , Raymarine and many others.

Gps fishfinder combos for gps navigation and tracking as well as fishfinder capabilities from leading manufacturers like Humminbird, Garmin, Raymarine, Eagle, Furuno, Lowrance and Northstar. The fishfinder uses active sonar to detect fish and the bottom and displays them on a graphical display device, generally a LCD or CRT screen.

Fishfinders for marine and watercraft use from leading manufacturers like Humminbird, Eagle, Garmin, Furuno, Northstar and Raymarine The fishfinder uses active sonar to detect fish and 'the bottom' and displays them on a graphical display device, generally a LCD or CRT screen. The fishfinders use similar frequencies, and, display type permitting, both can show fish and the bottom. Thus today, both have merged, especially with the advent of computer interfaced multipurpose fishfinders combining GPS technology, digital chart-plotting, perhaps radar and electronic compass displays in the same affordable sporting unit.

transducers from furuno, garmin, humminbird, interphase, clipper, sitex, lowrance, northstar, raymarine A transducer is a device that converts one type of energy to another.

Navigational instruments for marine and watercraft use, including Gps, autopilots and fishfinders from leading manufacturers Garmin, Lowrance, Raymarine, Humminbird, Northstar and more Navigational instruments refers to the instruments used by nautical navigators and pilots as tools of their trade. The purpose of navigation is to ascertain the present position and to determine the speed, direction etc. to arrive at the port or point of destination.

Multifunction displays for marine and watercraft use including Gps, radar, sonar, fishfinders, autopilots, satellite receivers and much more from leading manufacturers like Garmin, Raymarine, Humminbird, Northstar, Furuno and more.

EPIRBs, officially known as Emergency Position Indicating Radiobeacons, are emergency beacons used in maritime distress. They are designed to save your life if you get into trouble by alerting rescue authorities and indicating your location anywhere in the world. EPIRBs are classified into two categories: Category I or Category II.

Category II EPIRBs are similar to Category I EPIRBs, except in most cases they are manually activated, however some models can be automatically activated.

EPIRBs are a safe reliable way to track your boat or watercraft in case of any unforeseeable emergency. Fire, flood, engine damage or medical emergency are just a few reasons to have an EPIRB onboard for emergency crews to locate your boat quickly. The low cost is worth saving your watercraft or your life or the life of a love one. When you invest in an EPIRB, you invest in peace of mind.   

Radars from leading manufacturers like Furuno, Garmin and RayMarine. Featuring both array radars and dome radars. Marine radars are used by ships for collision avoidance and navigation purposes. The frequency band of radar used on most ships is x-band (9 GHz/3 cm), but s-band (3 GHz/10 cm) radar is also installed on most ocean going ships to provide better detection of ships in rough sea and heavy rain conditions.   General purpose radars" are increasingly being substituted for pure navigational radars. These generally use navigational radar frequencies, but modulate the pulse so the receiver can determine the type of surface of the reflector. The best general-purpose radars distinguish the rain of heavy storms, as well as land and vehicles. Some can superimpose sonar and map data from GPS position.       

A compass can lead your way across your favorite waterway. It will keep you on course and navigate you across bodies of water safely. Maptrac carries compasses from Azimuth, Ritchie, Furuno and Garmin. We have compasses that can be mounted on your dash, in your dash, and on your windshield. A compass is a navigational instrument for determining direction relative to the Earth's magnetic poles. It consists of a magnetized pointer (usually marked on the North end) free to align itself with Earth's magnetic field. The compass greatly improved the safety and efficiency of travel, especially ocean travel. A compass can be used to calculate heading, used with a sextant to calculate latitude, and with a marine chronometer to calculate longitude. It thus provides a much improved navigational capability that has only been recently supplanted by modern devices such as the Global Positioning System (GPS).

Steering Systems parts and accessories from leading manufacturers like Furuno, Northstar, RayMarine and Simrad. Most modern navigation relies primarily on positions determined electronically by receivers collecting information from satellites.

Weather and time instruments from leading manufacturers like Dushnell, Davis, Furuno and Speedtech. Knowing the weather when you are out on the water is critical to boating safety. This includes time, tides, weather fronts, tempature, current conditions and much more. Keep in touch with the weather conditions on your watercraft with one of our time/ weather instruments.
