Greetings!

 

  Summer is officially here, and that means calm seas, crystal clear waters, and Bahamas fun.  And with summer we get to take advantage of all of the new products that were introduced at the Ft. Lauderdale and Miami boat shows.

  Be sure to stop by our updated showroom to see all of the new goodies!

GARMIN SERVICE CENTER

 

Island Marine is now an authorized Garmin Service Center.

We recently travelled to Garmin Headquarters in Olathe Kansas and were trained and certified to perform in house warranty and non warranty repairs of the marine product line.

 

Repair PCB  

 We can perform repairs in house and stock parts to eliminate

downtime.  No longer does a product have to be returned to the factory for repair!

 

  If your equipment was installed by us there will never be any labor or parts costs during

the duration of the warranty period.

 

 

JUST ARRIVED GARMIN 8000 SERIES  WOW!

  Garmin has really been on point when it comes to innovation and design. 

   The new 8000 series is here!

We have already done some installations and have been very impressed, not only do they look spectacular, their performance is greatly enhanced.  The 8000's ship with a much faster processor which means lightning fast chart redraws and performance.  Coupled with their new GPS 19X 10HZ GPS antenna you will notice your chart and radar overlays react more quickly to position and heading changes.

For serious deep-sea sportfishing, the GSD 26 takes high-definition targeting to a whole new level. With a compatible transducer, the GSD 26's Spread Spectrum technology scans on multiple frequencies at one time, returning vast amounts of data to the receiver. As a result, you can expect precise, shallow-water-like target separation at much greater depths - up to 10,000 ft (3,000 m).

 

Here is a great screenshot

GlobalStar is Back!      GlobalStar Dealer 

  
 GlobalStar has made a huge comeback and is offering superb satellite telephone service at very affordable rates.  Voice quality is better than cellular and is comparable to a traditional land line.

 Globalstar has a new constellation of Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites which provide for crystal clear communications and no voice delay. 

  We can setup accounts and activate service right here at the shop.  You can walk out the door with an activated satellite telephone with a "Normal"  telephone number.  (No more dialing an awkward country code and a phone # that makes no sense). 

GSP 1700   

 

  The GlobalStar phones are in stock!

Take a look at the NMEA and ABYC  
  
  We take continuing education and training seriously.  Technology is continually advancing and we must be educated and prepared.
  Two great organizations are paramount in helpig us achieve that goal.  The National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA),  and the American Boat and Yacht Council (ABYC).  Both have been instrumental in providing updated information and resources.

 Both organizations host multiple training programs, certification opportunities, and provide industry based standards.
  
  Take a few moments to browse the NMEA's and ABYC's
websites.
