Ok, let’s say I have won the lotto and just bought a big honking yatch. It’s one of those great white beauties that people are always dying on in CSI: Miami. My first day as skipper, we head out in the wide open seas-and get lost. What do I know about driving a yatch? Nothing! But I know I would need some fancy gee whiz gizmo to save the day. Enter the Standard Horizon CP500 GPS Chartplotter.
The Standard Horizon CP500 GPS Chartplotter is a state of the art piece of equipment. You won’t be lost when you use the CP500 WAAS (Wide Area Augmentation System-uses a satellites signal correction systems to tell you where you are) enabled GPS Chart Plotter. With it’s sharp HD 12-inch display-800×600 and viewable in direct sunlight-TFT (Thin-Film Transistor) display-you’ll be able to see where you are and where your going.

With the Standard Horizon CP500 GPS Chartplotter resting in easy line of sight, all is right with the world. Of course, if I did win the Lotto and buy a yatch, I wouldn’t be piloting it anyway. I’d have someone in a nice white uniform to do that for me. And I’d be sure to tell the Captain of my lovely yatch-stay away from Miami.
