Four chartplotters with 12-inch screens — Simrad, Garmin, Raymarine, and the Norwegian Orca — are compared side by side, with prices ranging from just over 30,000 NOK for the Simrad to 50,000 NOK for the Raymarine.0:47 The Simrad is the smallest and cheapest but lacks physical buttons and requires navigating hamburger menus, making it the least intuitive of the three traditional units.0:37 The Garmin costs roughly 10,000 NOK more than the Simrad, includes many hardware buttons, but its screen refresh rate is noticeably slower.0:57 The Raymarine, at 50,000 NOK, includes buttons, has the best screen for off-angle viewing and glare reduction, and is the only unit that accepts multiple chart systems: C-MAP, Navionics, and Lighthouse.1:14 Lighthouse is noted as promising but still in development, lacking autorouting without a Navionics supplement.4:35 Raymarine also auto-returns the display to the vessel's position after one to two minutes.4:24 The Orca, at 17,000 NOK, pairs a waterproof tablet screen with a separate processing unit and suits smaller coastal boats rather than full nav-station installations.2:04 The Raymarine is the clear overall winner; the highest price buys the most chart flexibility and the most polished hardware.4:24
