Raytheon Pathfinder Chartplotter

The Raytheon Pathfinder 70 model first enabled fast, seamless chart panning and full control of radar and charting functions earlier in ‘98. Once connected via HSB (High Speed Bus), dual station operation is made possible between two radars, or a radar and chart plotter, providing instant access to chart and radar information at both stations, either in full screen mode or as half screen windows. 

Now this has all gone a huge step forward by combining the 7' Pathfinder RL70 Raychart display with the 2kW, 18' diameter, 24nm range radome, to become the RL72 Raychart system — or alternatively, can be used to enhance a 4kW, 24' diameter, 48nm radome to form the RL24 Raychart system.Featuring the full suite of Pathfinder radar functions, RL Raychart also offers everything you would expect from the state-of-the-art chartplotter, including award-winning CMAP NT cartography with the latest in port and tidal information.

There are a lot of very impressive features included in these systems — too many to list here — but another important aspect is that when connected to an NMEA or SeaTalk system, RL70 Raycharts transform into versatile navigation repeaters. Waypoint data, bearing, range and time to target, plus speed, depth, wind and heading information can be displayed within user definable databoxes.
