OLATHE, Kan./November 12, 2007/PR Newswire — Garmin International Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. (Nasdaq: GRMN), today introduced a new line of big-boat screen multi-function displays (MFDs), designed for use in larger yachts and powerboats – the GPSMAP® 5X15 series and the GPSMAP 4X10 series.

The GPSMAP 5X15 series has a whopping 15-inch diagonal XGA (1024 x 768 pixel) sunlight readable touchscreen display. The touchscreen makes navigating menus a snap because the “virtual buttons” change depending on the function – and it also eliminates the need for “hard” buttons, a valuable space saver. Garmin offers two models – the GPSMAP 5015 with an enhanced worldwide satellite imagery basemap.This chartplotter features the same menu-driven touchscreen found on its 5000-series counterparts. A satellite-enhanced worldwide basemap and a whopping 15" screen make navigation as easy as pointing your finger. By connecting to the Garmin Marine Network, you can add marine sonar, radar and weather. And for even more advanced features, you can add the optional BlueChart® g2 Vision card.
