Common Questions
GPS & Radar FAQ
What brands of chartplotters do you carry?
We stock and install Garmin, Simrad, Lowrance, and Raymarine — all the major marine navigation brands. We'll help you choose the right system for your boat and how you fish or cruise.
Can you network multiple displays together?
Yes — we build full NMEA 2000 and Ethernet networks so your chartplotter, radar, sonar, autopilot, and VHF radio all share data and display on any screen at the helm.
Do you install radar?
Absolutely. We install both dome and open-array radar systems, handle the mounting and cabling, and align the unit for accurate returns.
Can you add SiriusXM weather to my existing chartplotter?
If your chartplotter supports it, yes. We install the GXM 54 or compatible SiriusXM antenna and get it paired to your display so you have live satellite weather on the water.
Do you update charts and firmware?
Yes — we can update charts, maps, and firmware on most Garmin, Simrad, Lowrance, and Raymarine units. See our Software Updates page for self-service links, or bring it in and we'll handle it.
