Eagle SeaCharter® 502c DF iGPS –
affordable dual-frequency colour combo

Eagle’s new SeaCharter® 502c DF iGPS is a powerful dual-frequency sonar/chartplotter featuring a convenient built-in precision GPS+WAAS antenna to create a space-saving and money-saving package for open cockpit boats.

An exclusive 12.5cm (diagonal), 256-colour, enhanced TFT sunlight-readable display allows wide-angle viewing, while the sharp 320x240 pixel resolution with COLORLINE™ generates excellent target detail and separation. An Overlay Data feature displays GPS data on sonar screens and sonar data on GPS screens.

A dual-frequency 50/200kHz Skimmer® transom-mount transducer together with 4000 watts peak-to-peak (500 watts RMS) power output gives positive depth sounding and fish finding (with 50kHz) down to nearly 460m!

Temperature/speed/distance displays are standard, as are other innovative functions including FishReveal™ and HyperScroll™. FishReveal™ identifies sonar returns from fish hiding in structure including weedbeds, thermoclines and surface clutter, while HyperScroll™ allows for manual adjustment of the ping speed of the transducer for greater fish detection at high speeds.

GPS information is derived via a 12-parallel channel internal GPS+WAAS receiver, with fast and strong satellite lock-ons, and very accurate plotting via MMC Navionics or NauticPath™ charting. Up to 100 routes / 1000 waypoints / 1000 event markers and 100 saveable and retraceable plot trails with up to 10,000 points per trail provide superior navigation, using 40 map zoom ranges from 0.03-6400km.

Simple to operate, with easy-to-follow and remember menu functions, the SeaCharter® 502c DF iGPS has a back-up memory which saves customised settings, is fully sealed and waterproof, and comes with a full two-year warranty.
