NEW for 2026 ONWA
K-Astral MFD chart plotter (page under construction)
ONWA K-Astral MFD chart plotter, is a professional marine navigation solution
for leisure yachts and fishing boats. Available in 8" and 12" versions.
New for 2026, this range of 8 and 12” muti-function chart plotters see the
introduction of touch screens to the Onwa range of products. The touch screen
is super slick with zooming much like a phone (two finger operation) and
ability to traverse a screen by a flick of a finger. This is the complete
answer to Onwa’s previous method of moving across the screen by curser which
although functional, it has to be said, was slow, tedious and clunky. The touch
screen works amazingly well – even when both the screen and the fingers are wet
and even when using a glove.
Available
as 8 and 12inch versions, each screen size coming in four versions:
1.
K-Astral 8 and 12 Touchscreen multifunctional chart
plotter
2. K-Astral 8A and 12A As for 1 with the addition of a built-in ClassB+ AIS
transceiver/transponder
3.
K-Astral 8C and 12C As
for 1 with the addition of a built-in next generation Chirp Sonar
4. K-Astral 8X and 12X This version combines all 3 into one
device.
All
of the models are able to accept an Onwa radar which connects simply with a
marinized but otherwise standard network cable. All the radar functions are
built into each model and apart from the Radome or Open Array antenna, nothing
else is needed for a complete radar set. The radar display can be viewed as a
conventional radar screen or overlaid onto the chart overlaid onto the chart
screen.
