Simrad Yachting debuts new NSS® 4 delivering a sleeker, faster and smarter multifunction display

by Simrad Yachting 13 Feb 00:50 GMT

Simrad Yachting, a leader in marine electronics and navigation, today introduced the NSS® 4, the latest premium chartplotter and fishfinder in the Simrad® portfolio, offering an elevated design, premium performance, and enhanced control capabilities designed for cruisers and offshore sportfishing boats.

"NSS 4 is the next step in our evolution of premium multifunction displays, representing our commitment to never settling," said Kevin Steinbraker, VP and General Manager, Digital Systems of Navico Group. "Anglers want tactile interfaces for total control in any sea conditions, they want a quick user experience, and they want all of this in a sleek, modern design that will elevate their helm. With the new NSS 4, there is no need to compromise. Our team works diligently to provide versatile solutions to anglers so that they can set new expectations out on the water."

Available in 10, 12 and 16-inch screen sizes, the NSS 4 redefines what is possible out on the water. Whether cruising or fishing, offshore performance is significantly enhanced with the all-new Qualcomm® 8-core processor, enabling smoother page transitions, faster auto-routing and, ultimately, faster boating. Users will notice a remarkable improvement when switching between apps. No lag or rendering delays, just seamless, lightning-fast transitions. The new multifunction display also features a trio of hybrid control options - touch, rotary dial, and keypad - allowing users to have total control in all conditions. An updated glass-to-edge design delivers a more premium look and feel to the helm, which continues once powered on with a streamlined interface optimized for ease of use.

The NSS 4 ushers in a new era of fishfinding capabilities with built-in dual channel 1kW CHIRP sonar and support for Active Imaging™ HD sonar. As an added new feature, anglers can track four sonar sources on a single display for the first time. The chart experience on the NSS 4 helps anglers find the best fishing holes with detailed C-MAP® DISCOVER® X and REVEAL® X charts, while superior connectivity enables confident navigation with seamless radar connectivity, and support for the latest trolling motors, including Simrad® RECON™.

With Simrad Yachting's latest operating system at its core, the NSS 4 offers the best in integration. Beyond seamless integration with the full Simrad® suite, NSS 4 also boasts extensive support for third-party technology, including multiple IP cameras, CZone® digital switching, RGBW lighting, audio, and much more. Additionally, Simrad Yachting leads the industry in Mercury integration, offering unparalleled compatibility with features like onscreen cruise control, active trim, and autopilot. Integration with other popular engine brands, such as Honda and Suzuki, is also available, with features like fuel managers and fault diagnostic tools.

The NSS 4 range starts at $2,599 USD and will be on display at the Miami International Boat Show, February 12-16, 2025.
