Know before you buy
No, the gS95 requires an external GPS sensor, such as the Raymarine RS130, to receive satellite positioning data. This external setup is often preferred for better signal reception in various mounting locations.
Yes, the unit is highly compatible and supports NMEA 0183, NMEA 2000, SeaTalkng, and Ethernet interfaces. This allows it to communicate seamlessly with other networked devices like autopilots, radar, and sonar modules.
The gS95 features a high-performance dual-core processor that ensures smooth, responsive multi-touch control, including pinch-to-zoom functionality. While it is designed for ease of use, the glass bridge interface is built to handle the demands of active marine environments.
The unit comes preloaded with a worldwide basemap and is compatible with both Navionics and Raymarine LightHouse charts. You can easily load these using the dual MicroSD card reader located on the device.
The gS95 is versatile enough to function perfectly as a standalone chartplotter, but it is also designed to be part of a larger multi-station glass bridge network. You can start with one unit and expand your system as your navigation needs grow.
