On public display for the first time in the UK, the new GlobalMap 8200C chartplotter from Lowrance features the exceptionally high quality SolarMax™ 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 functionality available with both NauticPath and Navionics electronic 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.

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 currently seven models in the GlobalMap range from Lowrance, with screen sizes ranging from 5 inches to 10.4 inches, and prices start at just £375 including VAT. All Lowrance products are distributed exclusively in the UK and Ireland by Navico UK Ltd.
