Business Wire
Garmin International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (NASDAQ:GRMN),
today announced that Yamaha Marine Group has selected the
Garmin
7-inch GPSMAP® multi-function display (MFD) platform to power
its new CL7TM multi-touch display. As the primary display for
Command Link Plus® and Helm Master®, Yamaha’s fully integrated boat
control system, the CL7 is fully network capable for NMEA 2000® and
the Garmin Marine Network. Full-network compatibility allows the
user to add multiple Garmin screens, sensors, sonar, weather,
radar, autopilot, Fusion Link, IP cameras and more with full system
integration and sharing across the entire system. The CL7 will be
standard for Helm Master and will be the premium display for all
Command Link Plus outboard engines starting in May 2017.
“It’s an honor to have been selected as the display choice for
Yamaha’s new CL7,” said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice president of global
consumer sales. “Built on the GPSMAP 74/7600 series platform, the
CL7 offers streamlined performance and integrated features that are
pivotal to improving the consumer boating experience.”
“The features and capabilities of the new Yamaha CL7 display
make command of Yamaha-powered craft easier and more informative
than ever before,” said Ben Speciale, President, Yamaha Marine
Group. “We chose Garmin to power this display to offer enhanced
features for ease of use and a more controlled, convenient
experience on the water.”
The new CL7 touchscreen display becomes the primary display for
Command Link Plus systems as well as Helm Master. It is the
required point of access to Yamaha’s new Set Point™ boat
positioning function, and offers precise and user-customizable
engine and boat systems data for up to four outboards on one
screen. The CL7 is offered in two models: one with built-in
detailed BlueChart® g2 U.S. coastal and LakeVü HD maps, and one
with a worldwide basemap.
