O-Sea-D Marine Electronics is a certified Garmin installer serving Jupiter, Florida and the surrounding Southeast Florida. We design and install complete Garmin systems for sportfish vessels, center consoles, and motor yachts — from standalone chartplotter upgrades to full helm refits built around the GPSMAP 8000 and 9000 series.

Garmin is the most widely installed electronics platform in offshore sportfishing for good reason. The network integration is deep, the hardware is reliable in harsh saltwater environments, and the product lineup covers everything from entry-level echoMAP combos to 24-inch GPSMAP glass helm displays with full Panoptix LiveScope sonar, open array radar, and GHP Reactor autopilot running as one unified system.

We've built complete Garmin systems on vessels from 30-foot center consoles to 70-foot sportfish yachts. Whether you're commissioning a new build, upgrading a single piece of aging hardware, or refitting an entire helm from scratch, we'll spec the right combination of Garmin equipment for your vessel, your fishing style, and your budget — and integrate it cleanly so everything works together the way it should.

Garmin products we install

  • Garmin Chartplotters — echoMAP UHD2 and GPSMAP series, including large-format 16", 19", and 24" glass helm displays
  • Garmin Radar — GMR Fantom solid-state open array and radome systems

  • Garmin Transducers — GT series thru-hull and transom-mount, properly matched and hull-placed for your vessel
  • Garmin Autopilot — GHP Reactor series in hydraulic, mechanical, and steer-by-wire configurations

Featured Project — 55' Viking Full Garmin Refit

One of our most recent major Garmin builds was a complete electronics refit on a 55' Viking. The project involved a full helm redesign centered around the Garmin GPSMAP series, integrating new chartplotters, Panoptix LiveScope sonar, and a full network build connecting radar, AIS, and autopilot into one clean system. The result was a modern, fully networked Garmin helm on a proven offshore tournament platform.

Why Installation Quality Matters

A Garmin system is only as good as its installation. Poorly run cables, mismatched transducers, or a network that isn't configured correctly will underperform regardless of the hardware. We've seen enough rushed installs to know where the shortcuts show up — and we don't take them.

Every install we complete is sea-trialed before sign-off. We don't hand the boat back until the system is performing correctly on the water — chartplotters talking to radar, sonar reading clean at speed, autopilot holding a heading in open ocean conditions.
