On public display for the first time in
the UK, the new GlobalMap 8200C chartplotter from Lowrance features the
exceptionally high quality SolarMaxâ„¢ TFT display for which Lowrance is
famed, bringing ultra-high viewing quality as well a wide range of GPS
and chartplotting functions to the UK yachting public at an exceptional
price.
With an 8.4 inch (21.3 cm),
16-bit colour screen the GlobalMap 8200C makes big screen navigation
accessible to a whole new class of yachtsman, enabling them to both
fully appreciate the detail and take full advantage of the

charts.
As part of Lowrance’s latest line-up,
the GlobalMap 8200C features full NMEA-2000 connectivity as part of its
in-built LowranceNET networking system. When connected to the
necessary inputs this enables the GlobalMap to act as a display console
for a wide range of data generating devices; including radar, echo
sounders and Lowrance’s highly regarded Fuel Management System. It also
has two MMEA-0183 compatible duplex ports to accommodate equipment that
has not been uprated to the new standard.

to store 1000 unique waypoints, 1000 event markers and 100 routes, a
one-touch man overboard function and much, much more. The unit also has
two waterproof memory card slots and is itself fully sealed and
waterproof.
With an RRP of £1,150.00 including
VAT this is a highly affordable unit that will be a valuable addition
to a wide range of leisure craft including RIBs and fishing boats, as
well as more substantial motoryachts and sailboats. There are
