A lot of performance in a small space: the GX1600E from Standard Horizon
Waterproof according to IP-X8, it is ideally suited for installation in the cockpit. If a GPS is connected, as prescribed for DSC devices, up to 100 waypoints can be programmed and controlled using a compass display. In this way, a course can be taken to the position resulting from an emergency call from another vehicle.
Installation depth of just nine centimeters. Ideal for the tax pillar
If you want to know where your sailing enthusiasts are, you can query the position of four known MMSIs, provided that their devices are activated and within range. These positions can also be transmitted to a plotter via NME.
The functionality of a normal GPS receiver integrated into the spark allows the GX1600E to be installed in the cockpit as the sole navigation tool, so to speak, there are two devices in one. Ideal for smaller boats that also want to get by without a chart plotter or have to do with space reasons.
If you are looking for small installation dimensions, water resistance and a wide range of functions, you will find what you are looking for at Standard Horizon for 220 euros. More info: www.standardhorizon.co.uk
