The Explorer 550 offers large screen functionality at an attractive price. Powerful C-MAP NT MAX™ features are brought to life on the 5in 320 x 234-pixel daylight viewable colour screen.

With fuel computer software installed, the Explorer 550 offers a complete fuel management system for gasoline or SmartCraft™ enabled engines.

Northstar Explorer Chartplotter features:
The Explorer 550 is designed with the smaller vessel in mind. Now any sized boat can take advantage of GPS technology. With a built-in 16 MB regional background map, the 550 is ideal as a basic GPS navigation tool or can be upgraded to a fully functioning chartplotter with the addition of a C‑Map NT MAX™ card.

Fuel Management
Every Explorer Chartplotter unit has a built-in fuel computer. Just purchase the optional fuel kit to display fuel management data such as fuel flow, fuel remaining, estimated range and fuel economy. A graphical fuel gauge complements this digital information, and each Explorer comes SmartCraft™-ready - a fantastic feature for boats with compatible Mercury, MerCruiser and Mariner engines.
