Northstar 972

Using the 972’s 3D screens, you can view 
the ocean floor and land information as a 
three-dimensional image. You can see 
favorite fishing spots, harbor entrances, 
and even navigation channels in a full 3D 
view, both above and below the water 
surface.

You can use the cursor pad to “fly” around 
your vessel to observe your surroundings 
from a different position.

Note that the first time an area is accessed 
for 3D display, it may take some time to 
read the data from the disk drive and 
process it for display. Blending modes, 
especially Photo Blending, require a long 
processing time to prepare an image for 
display. Once the data is processed, this 
display updates quickly. 

Turn 

 or 

 the overlay selected (may be 

vector charts or photo) on the 3D Options 
screen.

Vessel mode: The camera viewpoint always 
points toward the vessel, showing it from 
various angles and elevations.

Browse mode: The camera viewpoint can 
be moved to any location to show other 
areas. 

While every effort has been made to provide 
the best elevation data possible, errors in the 
source material, data processing and the 3D 
presentation may occur. The prudent mariner 
will always have official navigation charts for 
comparison and as their primary means of 
navigation.
