The TZMAP9 and TZMAP13 chartplotters are engineered for recreational and professional boaters seeking dependable navigation, accurate sonar performance, and advanced charting within a straightforward, stand-alone solution. Designed for ease of operation, these multifunction displays provide direct access to TZ MAPS and a wide range of compatible cartographic data.

The TZMAP series combines practical functionality with advanced technology in a self-contained unit. Integrated TruEcho CHIRP™ fish finder processing, CHIRP side-scan support, radar compatibility, and comprehensive TZ MAPS functionality deliver essential navigation and fish-finding tools without unnecessary complexity.

With a focus on clarity, reliability, and efficiency, TZMAP chart plotters support confident navigation and effective fishing, backed by the proven performance standards of Furuno.

TZMAP features an intuitive, touch-based user interface derived from the proven NavNet TZtouchXL platform, offering a clear and efficient operating experience on the water. Familiar gesture controls such as swiping and single-tap menu access allow rapid interaction with navigation and sonar functions, minimising time spent in menus. Edge-swipe shortcuts ensure that key information and tools are always immediately accessible, supporting confident operation in all boating conditions.

TZ MAPS allows navigators to select and download only the chart data they require, including wide-area coverage, satellite imagery, and detailed bathymetric information. Depth shading, bathymetric overlays, and multiple colour palettes improve chart readability and situational awareness, supporting precise navigation in a wide range of conditions.

Users can create, edit, and manage custom chart objects, enabling real-time updates to aids to navigation such as buoys when their positions change. These user-defined objects can be shared with other registered TZ MAPS users via a moderated service provided by TimeZero, and easily managed through the layered chart display.

The purchase of any TZ MAPS region also enables advanced features such as AI Routing, which calculates optimised routes based on vessel draught, charted depths, and navigational constraints. Charts purchased directly from the chart plotter are additionally available in the free TZ iBoat mobile application, allowing route planning and review away from the vessel. With a free TimeZero account, routes and waypoints can be securely stored and retrieved via cloud services, ensuring continuity and data protection across devices.

BathyVision for TZ MAPS delivers high-resolution bathymetric data with configurable contour lines, allowing adjustments down to 3-inch intervals—three times finer than standard charts. This detailed depth information, sourced from the same database used for TZ MAPS depth shading, can be overlaid directly onto navigation charts, providing exceptional clarity for navigation and precision fishing applications.

TZMAP features an integrated single-channel TruEcho CHIRP™ or CW fish finder, delivering 300 W, 600 W, or 1 kW of power for precise detection of fish and underwater structures. This proven Furuno technology provides detailed insight into the water column, supporting confident and effective fishing operations.

TZMAP’s built-in CHIRP Side-Scan provides high-definition imaging of the seabed to port and starboard, clearly revealing the shape of underwater structures and fish targets. The system operates at 230 kHz or 445 kHz using thru-hull, paired, or transom-mount transducers. Side-scan imagery can be displayed in eight selectable colour palettes, including White, Green, Blue, Orange, Aquamarine, and high-contrast options such as Tuna Hunter, Volcano, and Fury, enhancing visibility in diverse water conditions.

No matter how you spend your time on the water, you need a radar system you can trust for safety and situational awareness. Whether using the proven X-Class magnetron DRS4DL+ or the NXT Solid-State Doppler DRS2DNXT/DRS4DNXT, Furuno delivers reliable, feature-rich performance. These dome radars include advanced capabilities such as Target Analyzer™ for hazard alerts, Fast Target Tracking for rapid speed and course vectors, Bird Mode for detecting flocks and feeding birds, and Rain Mode to clearly distinguish targets even in heavy squalls.

TZ Weather provides mariners with reliable situational awareness and forecasting worldwide. The free service delivers global and regional forecasts from NOAA’s GFS, while a premium subscription allows access to higher-resolution data from models such as ICON, NAM CONUS, Arpège, and AROME.

Detailed forecasts can be tailored by duration, resolution, and model, and the intuitive Weather Timeline & Layers interface lets you visualise wind, currents, and changing conditions at a glance. Tools like animated particles, wind barbs, Meteograms, and customizable presets help plan departures and monitor evolving weather with confidence.

Dynamic Mooring helps boaters identify safe anchorages by combining real-time weather forecasts with TZ MAPS advanced charting. By selecting a date and downloading current forecasts, the system automatically evaluates wind conditions and local topography, providing a clear colour-coded mooring status: green for sheltered, orange for partially protected, and red for exposed. High-resolution vector maps, enhanced by contributions from the TIMEZERO “Community Maps” network, ensure an up-to-date and reliable anchorage database.

For users seeking enhanced tactile control, the MCU-006 and MCU-006H remote control units provide an effective alternative to touchscreen-only operation. Available in vertical or horizontal formats, these controllers can operate any NavNet TZtouchXL MFD connected to the network, offering flexible installation options for various helm configurations. Each unit features a responsive RotoKey™ combined with ten dual-function programmable keys, allowing quick access to frequently used functions. Swipe actions and system commands can be triggered directly from the controller, enabling precise and controlled operation even in rough sea conditions, while reinforcing Furuno’s approach to intuitive and professional helm control.
