Radar has played a vital role in keeping the world’s waterways safe for more than 60 years. But for the most part it has been big, expensive and mostly used by the commercial shipping industry.
But, like all technology, its role has continually expanded and changed and today it is used for everything from navigation to fishing and these are the areas we are starting to see some notable advancements.
One of the most significant of these has been the development of the Simrad Halo Solid State Pulse Compression Radar, a project that has taken 10 years and $15m to complete.
The Halo is not only compact enough to be used on sports fishing boats but it is easier to use, quieter, quicker and safer than any radar system we have seen before.
Rather than trying to explain this exciting new piece of technology ourselves, Boat Advice, invited Stephen Burney from Navico, the parent company of Simrad, to join us on a beautiful Caribbean 40 to explain exactly what it can do and how easy it is to use.
