Please Visit The Garmin Website For More Details Garmin proves every time they turn around why they are the best in the industry for marine electronics. We are proud to use the Garmin product and being a part of the endless testing they put into each and every product they put out. Next time you are putting a boat system together, use a Garmin chart plotter that works with the Garmin Meteor 300.
Attach the amps to the networked unit and the rest is right on the screen. The Garmin Meteor 300 offers all the functionality of any head unit right in the chart plotter to control it. The biggest pain in the but is the head unit right on the dash board to control all the tunes. Super clear and powerful we can keep in touch with each other all day without concern of how far away we are.Ī few of our boats have nice stereo systems by Rockford Fosgate. We have a ton of experience with the Garmin 300 VHF radio and have found it to be as good as anything we have ever used on the market. This prevents us from driving right over the fish, yet we will still know where they are. Super functional when we are working in channels where we are tarpon fishing. Sidevu is an amazing tool as well much like down view only looking to the sides of our boat as it makes a path through the water. a very cool tool for us as we fish so much structure and it allows us to map exactly where the fish are able to hide and make our drop right in their face. Using high frequency the sonar is able to decipher the signal and actually draw a sort of image of the bottom below the boat. This has given a whole new level of target definition on the screen for us to see what is truly down there with amazing clarity and detail.ĭownvu is an amazing too that some of our boats equipped with this technology are able to utilize. With the new Chirp technology the Garmin sounders are reading a whole different set of frequencies and information each time the sounder "pings". Now they are the best in marine sounders with Garmin. Words like side view, chirp and down view meant nothing three years ago. Without getting into to much detail there is so much information just in the tracks of our boats on their Garmin chart plotters that is transferable to the Garmin Home port to allow me to study and get the most out of our days on the water. I am able to file the work area of each one of our boats and keep track of fish moments, trends and fuel economy.

Accuracy is critical in the way that we fish and conduct the operations of our boats. expand and zoom with the squish of two fingers just like an Ipad. Today the clean crisp detail with some units having high resolution of 1080, the amazing speed that the chart plotters have as well as touch screen technology its almost too easy.
It was pretty archaic then as compared to todays standards but then like today it was the best in the industry. Since 1994 as LORAN was being phased out Garmin was the units we went to for our GPS needs. Incredible weather.ĭeep sea fishing Mahi Mahi, Occasional Sailfish, Wahoo and possible Marlin.
