Introducing CoastMaster Premium - Florida Chart
Equipping Saltwater Anglers with the Finest Fishing Charts Available for all Florida Coastal Waters
RACINE, Wis., March 4, 2021 – Humminbird® announces the release of the new and enhanced CoastMaster® Premium - Florida chart, which delivers even more detailed information for all Florida coastal waters. The new CoastMaster Premium – Florida chart includes all the features of the existing CoastMaster - US Coastal chart, as well as additional premium features to navigate confidently and find more fish, including Shaded Relief, Enhanced Aerial Imagery, Bottom Hardness and Auxiliary Contour layers.
The new CoastMaster Premium - Florida chart features Shaded Relief making it easy for anglers to read the chart and determine bottom detail and depth changes. The Enhanced Aerial Imagery feature gives anglers the ability to navigate confidently with the aid of visual landmarks and locate new fishing spots with more detail than ever before. The new chart also features a Bottom Hardness layer to help anglers identify bottom composition and key fish-holding areas, allowing coastal anglers to make the best decisions for their fishing. The Auxiliary Contour layer provides additional contours in shallow water areas, ensuring an unmatched level of detail no matter water depth.
“The new CoastMaster Premium - Florida chart arms saltwater anglers with the highest quality information available in order to identify the most productive fishing areas in all Florida coastal waters,” said Matt Cook, Humminbird brand manager. “The new chart offers premium features exclusive to Humminbird and will give anglers detailed information to aid safe navigation, and most importantly, to find and catch more fish.”
In addition to the premium features mentioned, the new chart offers all the existing features found on other CoastMaster charts, including:
- VX Technology provides customizable view presets, making it easy to switch between your favorite chart view options, including 5 customizable color palettes
- High-quality spot sounding and depth contour data with readings as accurate as one-foot increments
- Hundreds of navigational aids and icons to assist in navigating and enhance situational awareness
- Thousands of points of interest, including icons marking artificial reefs, as well as tide and current stations
- Chart adjustment features like Depth Highlight, Shallow Water Highlight and Water Level Offset, as well as identified drying areas during high tide
With CoastMaster Premium, anglers have the option to leverage the power of the One-Boat Network™. By pairing a Humminbird chartplotter, a CoastMaster chart and Minn Kota® trolling motor together, anglers will be able to experience unmatched boat control and fishing features. With this integrated system, anglers can control all features of a Minn Kota i-Pilot® Link™ trolling motor right from a Humminbird chartplotter display, including the exclusive Follow a Contour feature. When engaged, the Humminbird control head will instruct the Minn Kota i-Pilot® Link™ trolling motor to follow a specified depth contour from the CoastMaster chart automatically, even allowing you to set a desired speed of travel, for automatic boat control.
