ready-to-go on the 567 and 557, allowing you to identify and avoid large ships
and other vessels transmitting AIS signals in near by waters.
- The Explorer 538(i): is designed with the smaller vessel in mind. Now
every sized boat can take advantage of GPS technology.
- Fuel Management: Every Explorer Chartplotter unit has a built-in fuel

such as fuel flow, fuel remaining, estimated range and fuel economy.
The Northstar
Explorer Chartplotters
A simple-to-use menu structure and superb daylight viewable screen
means you can enjoy your voyage whether it’s across the bay or across an ocean.
Rugged and waterproof, the Northstar Explorer is a brilliant choice for your
navigation needs.
Explorer 557: The built-in 32 MB regional
background map still offers reliable entry-level use, waiting to be enhanced
with C‑Map’s latest cartography: NT MAX™. With a 640 x 480 pixel screen, chart
display becomes 4 times sharper than the 550, making the 557 very easy on the
eye.

The Explorer 538(i): is designed with the smaller vessel in mind. Now every
sized boat can take advantage of GPS technology. With a built-in 16 MB regional
background map, the 538(i) is ideal as a basic GPS
navigation tool or can be upgraded to a fully functioning chartplotter with the
addition of a C‑Map NT MAX™ card.
Fuel Management
Every Explorer Chartplotter unit has a built-in fuel computer. Just
purchase the optional fuel kit to display fuel management data such as fuel
flow, fuel remaining, estimated range and fuel economy. A graphical fuel gauge
complements this digital information, and each Explorer comes SmartCraft™-ready
- a fantastic feature for boats with compatible Mercury, MerCruiser and Mariner
engines.
