    we sell a lot raymarine packages with the weather feature added and I have yet come across someone who does not like it.To have all the data right at your helm makes better fishing days.Give EMC a call if you need prices or install .Good luck

    I have used it for 2 years and it has saved my aggies more than a few times. Water temp is part of the data as well. It is well worth the bux and you can tune Sirius radio through the display.

    I second Capt Steve's comments

    I use it all the time and it is one of the finest things I have found in marine electronics recently. I track storm fronts from miles away and follow their paths plus sea temps.

    What service is compatible with a Navnet Vx2 Furuno chartplotter using a navionics chart card?

    I have both and I find XM far superior on the weather side and Sirius does a better job on sea temps. I know they share the same data but it all about presentation. XM has saved my but many times, but their sea temps are VERY generic. So for safety XM for fishing Sirius

    the furuno you need to change the software to Cmap, then you can add the sat weather. I have srius, had the radio for years its great. The weather system is the bomb.

    I have had both XM and Sirius.
    Sirius water temps beat MX by a mile. No comparison.
