Raymarine has some interesting news for this year, as boats.com senior editor Lenny Rudow discovered at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show, when the LightHouse software update was announced along with the CP100. The LightHouse update includes a lot of advancements, including new color palettes, menus, and pinch-to-zoom functionality. Meanwhile, the CP100 takes the same CHIRP-ish technology use in the Raymarine Dragonfly, and combines it with a black-box sounder. Nifty stuff - go ahead and get a glimpse for yourself, first-hand. http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2013/11/raymarine-lighthouse-and-cp100-update-first-look-video/ For more electronics videos, visit www.boats.com.
