NEW PRODUCTS - G-Series marine displays
GME has released a new fully featured G-Series range of marine displays offering customers either a combination unit chartplotter-fishfinder, GPS-chartplotter or standalone fishfinder.
The G-Combo, G-Plot and G-Fish have a high-performance colour display in a space-saving design, where screen resolution and brightness are at the top of the feature list.
GME said this is why it opted for a high-resolution 640 x 480 pixel, 142mm diagonal backlit TFT LCD display with night-mode and 10 adjustable settings on all three models. The units can either be flush-fitted into a dash or mounted on the supplied tilt and swivel bracket along with a sun cover.
The G-Plot and G-Combo have an inbuilt 16-channel GPS antenna with provision for an external antenna. Cartography is via C-Map Max charts available on standard SD card and both units can be purchased with or without a C-MAP Max Australia-wide chart. Enhanced C-MAP Max displays include dynamic nav-aids showing flashing beacons.
GME says the chartplotter specifications and features are enhanced by the use of digital fishfinder technology in the G-Combo with the multi-sensor Airmar P58 Triducer combining depth, speed, and temperature functions in one housing. Fish, said the company, won’t hide from the 600W RMS of power and 50kHz and 200kHz dual-frequency sonar. The G-Fish has all the sonar capabilities of the G-Combo unit but as a standalone fishfinder.
With an easy-to-use menu structure and multiple-screen options (of which six configurations can be stored as your favourites), GME said the G-Series allows you to get the best performance out of the unit quickly and easily.
“A snapshot function ensures you don’t miss a thing, this feature allows the display on the screen to be captured and saved to the units 128MB memory and then downloaded onto an optional SD card for viewing on your PC,” said GME.
Each of the IPX7 rated units come with a GME two-year manufacturer’s warranty and stocks are now available.
The G-Combo retails for $1099, the G-Plot for $999, and the G-Fish for $899.
