A sleeker, faster, and smarter multifunction display for Kiwi boaties

After its highly anticipated launch at the Miami International Boat Show last week, Simrad Yachting’s latest innovation, the NSS®4 multifunction display, is set to make its New Zealand debut at the Auckland Boat Show. Boasting cutting-edge technology, lightning-fast processing speeds, and seamless integration, the NSS®4 is designed to elevate the helm experience for both offshore sportfishers and cruising enthusiasts.

This next-generation premium chartplotter and fishfinder redefines performance and usability, featuring an all-new 8-core Qualcomm processor, built-in dual-channel CHIRP sonar, and advanced connectivity with third-party systems. Available in 10-inch, 12-inch, and 16-inch screen sizes, the NSS®4 range starts at approximately $4,250 NZD, making it a compelling choice for those looking to upgrade their vessel’s electronics.

Designed for total control in all conditions

The detailed C-MAP® DISCOVER® X and REVEAL® X charts provide real-time data for pinpointing the best fishing locations, ensuring every trip is as productive as possible.
