The vast majority of radar installations get mast mounted using the Kato Marine semi-custom stainless mast mount with guard shown here, but we have on occasion mounted the radar on an Edson Pole on the transom. The photo on the right shows it with an aft facing floodlight and an arch for a TV antenna. |

Raymarine uses Navionics Gold and Platinum charts. C series uses only the Gold Charts, the E series can use either Gold or Platinum charts. Navionics charts come on pre-programmed data cards. Gold Charts look like a paper chart, complete with shaded depth contours, colored light sectors and real-world shapes and colors of buoys and navaids. A feature of Gold Charts is "XPlain", a plain-language description feature that, with just a click of the cursor, deciphers confusing navigational symbols into plain-language everyone can understand Platinum
Charts are available in XL3-size coverage areas for the US, Canada, Europe

addition of 3D View, Satellite Photo Overlay, Panoramic Pictures,
Port Services & Points-of-Interest, Dynamic Tides & Currents,
