The Magellan eXplorist 510 Marine Edition provides boaters with a custom selection of best-in-class Navionics marine navigation charts and data plus a rugged, waterproof handheld Magellan eXplorist 510 Outdoor GPS device featuring easy-to-use menus, a built-in camera and a 3-inch sunlight-readable color touchscreen. In addition to high-definition content for 12,000 U.S. lakes, the Magellan eXplorist 510 Marine Edition includes U.S. coastal coverage up to two miles offshore, with data on 5-foot contours, tides, currents, wrecks, port plans, marsh areas, and marine services.
"It is our goal to deliver the most complete coverage and the most detailed content possible for recreational boaters," said Warren Hewerdine, Sr. Director of Marketing for Magellan. "Partnering with Navionics allowed us to not only deliver best-in-class- marine charts, but also develop a Magellan-exclusive solution combining lakes and coastline content for the most comprehensive coverage possible."
For maximum convenience to consumers, all Navionics charts and marine data are pre-loaded on a single MicroSD card that is included with the eXplorist 510 Marine Edition. Available in August from MagellanGPS.com and Magellan's authorized retail and online partners, the Magellan eXplorist 510 Marine Edition is $479.99 (MSRP).
