MUST-HAVE

Raymarine Sonars, FLIR Cameras

Boating may be safer and more enjoyable than ever, thanks to the recent release of

Raymarine/FLIR’s three new sonars and two new thermal cameras.

From FLIR, the new M4000 stabilized, multi-sensor thermal camera and handheld

Ocean Scout thermal camera help boaters stay safe on the water by allowing them to spot

other vessels, avoid collisions, and see clearly in total darkness. The M4000 features a

high-resolution, 640 by 480 thermal imager paired with a unique, three-times continuous

optical zoom lens. The Ocean Scout is a compact, handheld thermal camera that features

a new high-res LCD display and has the power to detect human-sized targets up to 600

yards away. Two versions are available: 240 by 180 resolution and 320 by 240 resolution.

From Raymarine, the new CP570 Professional CHIRP sonar, CP470 CHIRP sonar and

CP370 digital sonar are engineered for serious anglers. The CP570 allows users to see through

dense schools of baitfish, identify thermoclines, and simultaneously target desired game fish

with exceptional clarity. The CP470 features intelligent

on-board filtering for clear, low-noise imagery. The

CP370 delivers sharper fish targets and automatic

operation using Raymarine’s next-generation

ClearPulse digital sonar processing.

Retail price for the Ocean Scout 240 is $1,999;

the Ocean Scout 320 is $2,999.

Retail price for the CP470 is $1,199; the CP570 retails

for $1,999; and the CP370 retails for $699.

Volvo Penta

Forward Drive

A fi rst of its kind for recreational

water sports, Volvo Penta’s Forward Drive (FWD) debuted

at the Progressive Insurance Miami International Boat

Show in February and features forward-facing, dual

counter-rotating props with an adjustable-trim drive.

This patented, innovative design pulls the boat

through the water rather than pushing it, with an

undisturbed water fl ow to the propellers. Volvo’s

clean, effi cient propulsion system delivers superior

responsiveness, acceleration, fuel economy and

versatility, allowing for an array of activities behind the

boat, including wakesurfi ng and wakeboarding.

Drivers also will be able to customize the wake for

diff erent ability levels. The forward-facing DuoProp,

with counter-rotating propellers, off ers a unique and

industry-fi rst symmetrical wakeboarding wake and

equally shaped wake surfi ng wave on your side of

choice. FWD reduces noise and vibration and virtually

eliminates annoying fumes on deck, since engine

exhaust is expelled underwater beneath the boat.
