FURUNO TZMAP9: Stand-Alone MFD, Revolutionary Navigation and Fish Detection on Board

Name: FURUNO Furuno TZMAP9 Stand-Alone MFD for Next-Generation Navigation & Fish Finding
Brand: FURUNO
Price: 1930.00 EUR
Availability: InStock

The Furuno TZMAP9 is a high-performance 9" stand-alone multifunction display designed for advanced navigation, fish detection and selected radar integration from one compact helm screen. It is the smaller model in the TZMAP range, making it especially strong for boats where space is limited but the skipper still wants Furuno charting, sonar and radar-ready capability.

It combines multi-touch control, TZ MAPS charting, built-in TruEcho CHIRP fish finder, CHIRP Side-Scan, GNSS positioning, NMEA 2000 integration and selected Furuno radar compatibility in a compact, high-tech display. For fishing boats, trailerable boats, RIBs, compact sailing yachts, motor yachts and single-station helms, the TZMAP9 gives the boat one capable Furuno command point without adding the cost, space or complexity of a larger multi-display system.

Key Features of the Furuno TZMAP9

Display: 9" all-glass multi-touch screen with 1280 x 720 resolution, bright 1000 cd/m² visibility and split-screen capability with up to 4 windows. The TZMAP9 is a stand-alone MFD, not a multi-MFD network display.
Built-in sonar: internal TruEcho CHIRP/CW fish finder with support for 300 W, 600 W or 1 kW setups depending on the transducer, plus CHIRP Side-Scan at 230/455 kHz for depth, structure and side-view imaging.
Chart support: integration with TZ MAPS and compatible chart options, including BathyVision and AI Routing when supported by the selected chart region and unlocked data.
Radar and data integration: compatibility with selected Furuno radar sensors such as DRS4DL+, DRS2D-NXT and DRS4D-NXT, plus onboard data via NMEA 2000, NMEA 0183 output and Wireless LAN.
Robust marine design: compact waterproof construction with IPX6 protection front and back, built for real marine use at exposed or semi-exposed helm positions.
Data and chart management: supplied with a 256 GB microSD card for TZ MAPS data. The USB Type-C port is used for importing and exporting user data and software updates.

Compact Furuno Navigation with a Premium Touch Interface

The TZMAP9 is the compact entry point into the Furuno TZMAP chartplotter line-up. It is built for boat owners who want one capable stand-alone MFD instead of a larger multi-display navigation system. Its 9" format is easy to fit into limited dashboards, while still giving the skipper Furuno charting, fish finder, Side-Scan, selected radar integration and onboard data access from one screen.

This makes the TZMAP9 especially relevant for:

Sailing yachts and motor yachts that need one compact Furuno navigation system rather than a full multi-display setup
Compact boats, RIBs and trailerable boats where dashboard space is limited
Single-station helms where one capable screen is the most practical solution
Fishing boats that need chartplotter, sonar, Side-Scan and waypoint control in one clean display
Boat owners upgrading from a basic GPS or chartplotter to a stronger Furuno stand-alone MFD

The result is an entry-level Furuno MFD in size and system complexity, not in capability. It gives compact helms a sharp, modern and technically capable navigation display without forcing the boat into a larger installation than it needs.

TZ MAPS for Smarter Routes and Better Water Detail

The TZMAP9 uses TZ MAPS, Furuno and TIMEZERO’s advanced chart platform, to give the skipper a more detailed and visual navigation environment. Depending on chart region and unlocked data, users can work with hydrographic chart data, satellite imagery, terrain shading, depth shading, community edits and BathyVision bathymetry.

AI Routing can create a point-to-point route using chart data, vessel draft and selected safety parameters. For coastal cruising, marina approaches, channels and shallow areas, this gives the skipper a faster way to plan routes while keeping the final navigation decision under their control.

TZ MAPS can also connect with TZ iBoat, allowing chart functionality and planning support across compatible mobile devices when the correct charts and account setup are used.

Built-In Fish Finder and Side-Scan for Compact Fishing Boats

The TZMAP9 is a strong fishing display because the fish finder is built into the unit. It supports TruEcho CHIRP or CW fish finder operation with 300 W, 600 W or 1 kW output depending on the selected transducer setup.

Traditional sonar helps show depth, bottom profile and fish targets below the hull, while CHIRP Side-Scan helps reveal structure, objects and fish targets to port and starboard. For users fishing channels, wrecks, edges, shallow structure or changing bottom contours, this gives the compact helm much stronger underwater awareness.

Important sonar capabilities include:

CW frequency support: 50/200 kHz
CHIRP range: 40 to 240 kHz
Side-Scan frequencies: 230 kHz or 455 kHz, depending on transducer
Fish finder output: 300 W, 600 W or 1 kW, depending on setup
Fishing functions: ACCU-FISH, Bottom Discrimination, A-Scope, Bottom Zoom and Bottom Lock, depending on compatible transducer and setup

The transducer choice is critical. A correctly matched Furuno or Airmar transducer will define the quality of depth reading, target separation and Side-Scan performance.

Radar, Autopilot and Onboard Data Integration

The TZMAP9 can connect with selected onboard systems to create a more capable single-screen navigation station. Compatible Furuno radar options include:

DRS4DL+
DRS2D-NXT
DRS4D-NXT

Radar adds stronger situational awareness for night navigation, rain, poor visibility, traffic monitoring and coastline awareness. For radar overlay and stable radar presentation, suitable heading data must be planned as part of the system.

The TZMAP9 can also work with:

NMEA 2000 data
NMEA 0183 output via the power/data cable
AIS data over NMEA 2000
Engine, tank and fuel data through compatible NMEA 2000 gateways
NAVpilot-300 and NAVpilot-711C autopilot control via NMEA 2000
Wireless LAN for connected services such as TZ Weather
My TimeZero Cloud for saving and synchronising user data

Fleet Tracking and Connected TZ Features

With Furuno’s myTimeZero Cloud, user data such as waypoints, routes and selected navigation information can be saved and synchronised across compatible TZ environments.

Fleet tracking is available when both vessels use TZtouch E or TZMAP and are connected to the internet through myTimeZero Cloud. This can allow a mothership to monitor a tender or dinghy’s position, speed, depth and other available information.

For yacht tenders, shallow-water checks or dinghy excursions, this gives the skipper a practical layer of visibility beyond the main vessel.

Compatibility Details That Matter Before Ordering

Before choosing the TZMAP9, check the details that directly affect installation and performance:

Use TZMAP9 as a stand-alone display. TZMAP units are designed as stand-alone MFDs and are not intended to operate as networked multi-MFD displays.
Choose a compatible radar sensor. TZMAP9 supports selected Furuno radar sensors, including DRS4DL+, DRS2D-NXT and DRS4D-NXT.
Plan heading data for radar overlay. Radar overlay and stable radar presentation require suitable heading data from compatible onboard equipment.
Match the transducer to the fish finder setup. The internal fish finder supports specific CW, CHIRP and Side-Scan configurations. The transducer must match the desired sonar performance.
Check supported sonar combinations. Without Side-Scan, one single CHIRP, one CW, or one single Mid-CHIRP plus one CW can be used. With Side-Scan, one single CHIRP plus Side-Scan or one CW plus Side-Scan can be used. Dual CHIRP with Side-Scan and mixed dual-CHIRP Side-Scan combinations are not supported.
Confirm TZ MAPS requirements. AI Routing, BathyVision, satellite imagery and other advanced chart features depend on the selected chart region, unlocked data and available coverage.
Use NMEA 2000 for onboard integration. AIS, engine data, tank data, sensor input and autopilot control depend on compatible NMEA 2000 equipment and gateways.
Keep USB use specific. The USB Type-C port is for user data import/export and software updates, not for standard USB keyboards, mice or pointing devices.
