Garmin is excited to announce the GNX 120 and GNX 130, two new large-format marine instrument displays designed for serious sailors who demand quality, precision, and total integration. Both the 7-inch GNX 120 and 10-inch GNX 130 have high-precision glass-bonded monochrome ultra-glow LCD displays that show over 50 marine and vessel parameters, including depth, speed, wind, and navigational data. 

“Garmin’s new GNX instruments boast the brightest and most visible digits available in the market today, providing superior readability day or night,” said Dan Bartel, vice president of worldwide sales. “Combined with their customizable data displays, these new GNX displays make it easier than ever for sailors to get the information they need at a glance, allowing them to focus more on cruising or racing.” 

Easy to set up, calibrate and use thanks to the on-unit capacitive touch buttons, the GNX 120 and GNX 130 are also NMEA 2000 certified and can seamlessly share sailing data between other NMEA 2000-enabled Garmin devices. The ultra-glow anti-fog displays on the GNX 120 and GNX 130 overlay white or color digits on a black background, providing high contrast and visibility no matter the environment. 

Designed to be mounted at the base of the mast or above the companionway, the GNX 120 and GNX 130 instruments are the thinnest and lightest displays available in the market today. Both units can be flush mounted, and for a unique glass mast look, the GNX 120 can be flat mounted with an optional carbon fiber mast bracket. The GNX 120 and GNX 130 can be controlled from a distance using the new GNX Keypad, an optional accessory that features four different buttons dedicated to preset configurations. The GNX Keypad allows sailors to adjust background lighting of all displays from the touch of a button. 

Another benefit of both the GNX 120 and GNX 130 is power consumption. Only .36 watts is consumed during the day with no backlight, while .4 watts is used at night when only a mid-level backlight is required. This allows for more time on the water without running the boat motor or generator for extended periods of time.
