Description
Easy to use software
TZ SportFishing is based on the TIMEZERO chart engine, allowing you to pan and zoom across the chart extremely quickly and without any chart redraw.
The user interface is customizable, so you can choose which tools and navigation data are displayed at any time. Easily create a new route and overlay Nobeltec’s free weather forecast data on the chart so that you can plan your next trip accordingly.
All NOAA raster and vector charts are included for free in the mm3d format, for US waters. These also come with high-resolution satellite photos and 3D data.
Bathy Recorder
Create your own bathymetric charts with TZ SportFishing. All you need to do is connect your NMEA 0183 or 2000 depth transducer, and you can begin recording. Your bathy database will be updated in real-time, so every time you take a fishing trip, you will improve the quality of your bathy chart for those fishing grounds. By mapping the contours of the sea floor, you discover the exact spots that fish are most likely to be found.
SportFishing allows you to switch between 2D and 3D when viewing your bathy chart, and by activating depth shading, you can clearly identify each contour.
Seamless advanced hardware integration
With TZ SportFishing, you have the option to integrate a range of radars, sounders, MFDs and even AXIS IP cameras.
It supports Nobeltec InSight radars and the Furuno FAR2XX7 class radars so you can display, overlay and control the radar directly from your computer. SportFishing also integrates with Furuno Ethernet sounders, the NavNet3D and TZtouch chart plotters, standard NMEA 0183 navigation sensors, and NMEA 2000 networks.
