Has Garmin taken over Navionics?

Yes. Garmin acquired Navionics in 2017, integrating its charting technology into many Garmin marine Chart products.

Is Garmin boating the same as Navionics?

No. Garmin Boating is an app, while Navionics is a charting brand owned by Garmin. Both can share compatible chart data.

Do I really need radar on my boat?

What are the disadvantages of S-band radar?

S-band radar has lower resolution than X-band, making it less effective for small targets, but it performs better in rain and fog.

Which radar is best in the rain?

S-band radar generally handles rain better, though Garmin’s X-band radar marine units have filters to improve performance in wet conditions.
