Enhance Your On-Water Safety with Cutting-Edge Radar Technology

Imagine navigating through fog-shrouded waters or spotting distant threats before they become problems. The GMR Fantom 254 radar transforms your boating experience by delivering unmatched clarity and power in a compact 4-foot solid-state design. This powerhouse packs 250 watts of transmit power, offering detection from as close as 6 meters out to an impressive 96 nautical miles. Whether you're a weekend cruiser, serious offshore angler, or commercial operator, its intelligent features help you stay one step ahead of the action.

MotionScope: See Movement in Real Time

One standout capability is MotionScope technology, which harnesses the Doppler effect to differentiate moving objects from static ones. Birds flock over baitfish? Incoming vessels? Approaching squalls? They appear highlighted in sweeping colors on your display, making split-second decisions effortless. This isn't just radar—it's like having a live motion detector tuned for marine environments, reducing surprises and boosting confidence during low-visibility conditions.

Powerful MARPA Target Tracking

Track up to 30 targets automatically with mini-automatic radar plotting aid (MARPA). No manual intervention needed—it acquires and monitors returns in guard zones, boundary areas, or via MotionScope. Paired with a heading sensor, it provides precise course, speed, and closest point of approach (CPA) data, turning raw radar pings into actionable collision avoidance intel. Ideal for busy harbors or open-sea traffic.

Clutter-Free Views with Advanced Filtering

Sea clutter and rain interference can blind lesser radars, but not this one. Scan-to-scan averaging smooths out noise for sharper images, while dynamic sea filters adapt to calm, moderate, or choppy conditions automatically. Add auto bird gain to pinpoint surface-feeding flocks signaling hot fishing spots, and pulse compression for detailed resolution without sacrificing range. Echo trails leave ghostly paths behind movers, instantly revealing threats from clutter.

Seamless Integration and Versatility

Overlay radar feeds directly on your chartplotter for a unified view—no more toggling screens. Dual-range operation lets you monitor close-in and far-off simultaneously, and high-speed rotation (up to 48 RPM in select modes) keeps updates fluid. It supports dual radar setups for redundancy, programmable parking, and target sizing for quick assessments. Rugged IPX6 waterproofing and 80-knot wind resistance ensure reliability in harsh marine settings.

Practical Dimensions and Power Needs

Compact yet mighty, the full assembly stands 15.9 inches high with a 51.8-inch diameter sweep, weighing in at about 46 pounds total. It thrives on 10-32 VDC input, sipping power efficiently thanks to solid-state efficiency—no magnetron warm-up delays here. The 1.8° horizontal by 23° vertical beam slices through distances with precision.
