Furuno has once again raised the bar for sportfishing enthusiasts with the introduction of the NavNet TZtouchXL series of Multi-Function Displays (MFDs) designed to cater to the needs of the serious sports fishermen.
Introducing 6 new models for 2025, the TZT10X, TZT13X, and TZT16X each feature a built-in 1kW TruEcho CHIRP or CW Fish Finder as well as built-in 235kHz or 455kHz CHIRP™ Side-Scan that can show fish and structure in high detail port and starboard, providing crucial insights for successful fishing trips. The Fish Finder and Side-Scan functions can be accessed by the TZT22X, TZT24X and TZTXLBB (Black Box) across the NavNet network.
NavNet TZtouchXL delivers the ability to tailor the system with a wide array of high-powered Fish Finders for targeting all fishing requirements. From pin pointing structure and fish targets for deep dropping and jigging, a powerful 1kW DUAL CHANNEL CHIRP or DUAL FREQUENCY (50/200kHz) fish finder is built in as standard on all FURUNO TZT10X/13X/16X MFD’s. Simply add the DFF3D module or side scan transducer to add wide beam and true multi-beam for finding bait fish and pelagic targets. For anglers who like to deep drop or sword fish, the DFF3-UHD Network Fish Finder offers high-power kW/3kW output to go deep.
For anglers looking for an added element of control, two new remote-control options are available, identical in function to the keypad on the TZT10X and TZT13X. The vertically oriented MCU006 and horizontal MCU006H can control any TZtouchXL MFD in the network. Both feature a comfortable RotoKey™ and bevelled buttons for enhanced ease of use. The ten dedicated dual-purpose buttons operate different functions, including the ability to access the Edge Swiping functionality that makes the NavNet TZtouch series so easy to use.
The eye-popping DFF3D Multibeam Sonar shows fish and structure around the vessel in 3D while generating amazing custom shaded relief maps. All the essential fishing tools like Magnetron and Solid-State Doppler Radars, AIS, and NAVpilot Autopilots are compatible. Plus, if you have a Furuno Sonar, you can even display it right on your TZtouchXL screen with an optional video kit.
*All-new cartography, called TZ MAPS, offers an unprecedented level of detail and customization to suit the needs of every boater. Powered by TimeZero, it provides all-new charts with a single purchase directly from the MFD. TZ MAPS combines the detailed appearance of raster charts with the flexibility of vector charts, featuring crisp detail at any magnification level and eight customizable colour palettes.
Furuno's *BathyVision charts offers custom depth colour shading and configurable contour lines with resolution providing the most eye-popping and accurate fishing charts available.
*IMPORTANT INFORMATION: TZMaps® and BathyVision® charts with associated features for South Africa region will only be available 2nd half 2025. Availability is subject to the manufacturer’s delivery schedule. In the meantime, the standard MapMedia mm3d charts with limited TZTXL features are available to use until the TZMaps® and BathyVision® charts are available for TZTXL MFD’s and TimeZero Professional.
