Garmin GMR™ 1224 xHD2 Open Array Radar and Pedestal
12kW 4' Antenna
Model: K10-00012-11The GMR 1224 xHD2 12 kW high-definition 4-foot open-array radar is our most powerful option for serious seafarers of large yachts and sport fishing boats with limited space for an open array radar. This is our most powerful 4-foot radar, providing more sensitivity, more target detail and more consistent target positioning than our other 4-foot open array radars. If you want the best open array for limited space, this combination of high power and compact sweep makes it the perfect option for cruising and fishing offshore, overnight and in foggy, limited or no visibility, conditions.
High-power xHD2 Radar with Narrow 1.8 Degree BeamThis high-definition 12 kW radar has the power to deliver excellent range, up to 72 nautical miles, even in fog or rain. Its narrow 1.8 degree horizontal beamwidth means it can pick out weaker targets further off in the distance than wider beamwidths. The result is this radar paints a clear, concise image of the shoreline, other vessels, and impending weather on your Garmin chartplotter. You get consistent target positions, excellent target separation and reliable operation. Its 8-bit true color imagery also helps you discriminate large targets from small ones and enhances target separation. Rotation speeds of 24 and 48 rpm with a max range scale of 72 nautical miles.
Bird ModeFishermen know, when you find birds at the water’s surface, you’ll also find fish.
To further improve your fishing experience, use Bird Mode, which helps to locate birds at the water’s surface where baitfish are also likely to be found.
Echo TrailsA historical ?trail? is left on the screen to help you quickly and easily identify moving targets and potential collision threats.
Dual RangeSingle radar antenna is capable of providing split screen images on your chartplotter for both close and long range.
Dual Radar SupportProvides redundancy and the ability for each display unit on the boat to select data from one of two different radar sources.
Dynamic Auto GainDynamic Auto Gain automatically adjusts gain levels to optimum settings for harbors, near shore, and offshore in open waters.
Dynamic Sea FilterDynamic Sea Filter automatically adjusts gain to calm, medium and rough sea conditions.
Radar OverlayOverlays the radar image on the chartplotter’s map page.
MARPA Target TrackingMini-automatic radar plotting aid (MARPA) tracks up to 10 selected targets, helping you keep track of other vessels and avoid collisions.
Guard ZoneSet the safety zone and receive an alarm when an object enters the zone.
VRM and EBLVariable range markers (VRM) and electronic bearing lines (EBL) allow rapid measurements of distance and bearing to vessels and land.
The Power of Simple?RadarThis radar is designed to be easy to install and use. There are no complex user settings to fuss around with, just install it and start using. You can rely on the GMR xHD2 to provide reliable, optimum performance in all conditions.

Where do I start! This man is a genius, I may have ordered a amateurs dream from this man, went all out on garmin products from gpsmap screens to the live scope lv34 and to juice them up I went with all powerhouse batteries and charging units! Well now on the boat I’m staring at this out dated minnkota and it just looked out of place so I went ahead and ordered up the KRAKEN! I can’t stop bragging on how much you have helped me, even face timing me on the water to fine tune my Livescope, there is no big box store that could even come close to offer this level of customer service! You will forever be my go to company! Thank you again!

Very fast shipping. Very knowledgeable guy to deal with. I inquired after hours and Chad responded quickly and chatted with me for way longer than necessary because I knew nothing about livescope. Who offers there cell phone number to call with any install questions??? Chad does. I got a friend request from him and accepted. Felt like I bought from someone who values my purchase as well as my friendship. We may never meet but I feel like I have gained a great friend. Thanks Chad for all your time spent explaining what I wanted and giving me choices. This won't be my last purchase..

It has been a pleasure dealing with Chad at Chaddy Boys! I had contacted him many times on the phone and has been very helpful! I felt like we had been old friends for a long period of time! Chad sent me many quotes and was very helpful on choosing the electronics setup I was seeking! I ordered my unit and received it on exact date I was quoted! I will definitely be buying from Chaddy Boys again!

This 16 volt battery and Run and Gun Charger is the only way to outfit your boat. Fish all day with no worries. Chad is very knowledgeable and helpful with the everything you need for a great day on the water. Now just waiting for a 36 volt to have the perfect setup. Thanks Chad.
Update* Well we just installed the second battery and run and gun charger. Took out 3 lead acid and about 120 lbs. Looking forward to the new system. Gonna be awesome. Thanks again Chad
