Satellite weather receiver for NavNet vx2 7", 10.4" and Black Box units. Requires Sirius
weather service subscription, sold separately.
Your NavNet vx2 display has just become your weather central.
NavNet vx2 is the most complete and versatile weather solution available on the market today. It started with the FA30 Weather Fax and then the PB100 Ultrasonic Weather Station. Now, with the addition of the BBWX1 Sirius Satellite Weather Receiver, no other multi-function navigation system offers a more complete weather solution for your vessel.
Furuno’s BBWX1 allows you to overlay up-to-the-minute weather information right over your C-Map MAX charts. As shown on the screen at left, displaying a variety of weather information is as simple as turning on or off a switch, which allows you to be in control of the information you want to see. What’s even more amazing, is that this is all being done on your C-Map MAX chart, which means you can plan your routes based on specific weather information.
