The Garmin GPSMAP® 1523xsv chartplotter — a new ultrawide 15-inch touchscreen – provides boaters, cruisers and sailors with a high-resolution display, superior clarity and a sleek design to optimise space in the helm. With an edge-to-edge glass format that fits a wide range of dash configurations, users can enjoy the advantages of dual screens without needing two separate units, making it easier to display the data and applications they use most.
“We are excited to add an ultrawide display option to our popular GPSMAP x3 chartplotter series that offers boaters and anglers a more expansive, immersive field of view. Coupled with its easy-to-use functionality, built-in mapping and superior sonar capabilities, the GPSMAP 1523xsv delivers an incredible experience at the helm,” said Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Global Consumer Sales & Marketing.
- Ultrawide display: Experience enhanced viewing clarity with the 15-inch high-resolution touchscreen that’s 74% wider than a standard 9-inch chartplotter.
- Split-screen customisation: The ultrawide display is optimised for viewing applications side by side and utilises sidebar controls so users can easily customise and view the data they use most without switching screens.
- Built-in sonar: Ultra High-Definition ClearVü™ and SideVü™ scanning sonars offer vivid, high-contrast color palettes to help distinguish fish from structure3. Optional Panoptix™, LiveScope™ live sonar and CHIRP traditional sonar are also supported.
- Charts: Experience unparalleled coverage and detail with support for Garmin Navionics+™ charts, which includes Auto Guidance+™ technology2 and a one-year plan for downloadable daily updates. Users can also choose Garmin Navionics Vision+™ for premium features like high-resolution relief shading, satellite imagery and more.
- Force® integration: When integrated with a Garmin Force trolling motor, anglers can create routes, patterns and tracks for the trolling motor to follow while they fish. From the chartplotter screen, they can also control speed, check battery life and more.
- Seamless connectivity: Easily build an onboard marine system with compatible sonar, autopilot, radars, instruments, stereos, cameras and more by using NMEA networks or the Garmin Marine Network.
- Engine data support: View essential engine information such as RPMs, fuel flow and more for compatible engine manufacturers.
- Management of onboard systems: Control all boat operations on one screen. Utilise Garmin’s EmpirBus™ digital switching to control lighting, power management and more, or the OneHelm™ integrated solutions allow users to control third party systems and devices.
For simplified aftermarket and OEM installation, the GPSMAP 1523xsv offers two different mounting options. A bail-mount option with inset knobs and a bracket to support the unique floating display installations, while a rear-mount option provides secure flush and flat-mount helm solutions.
