Navman Marine to become Northstar
After years of international success, Navman Marine said it is set to move forward as part of the equally respected Northstar marine electronics brandNorthstar, into which Navman will transition over the coming boat show season, said it represents more than 35 years of high-performance navigation solutions, and its strong marine values will see the legacy of Navman continue well into the future.
Navico Asia Pacific chief operations officer, John Scott, said that for Navman customers Northstar would be the beginning of an exciting new chapter.
"A tremendous amount of passion and hard work has gone into growing the Navman family of products but the future is now with Northstar," said Scott.
"This is the transformation of one of our favourite brands and while Northstar is a new name, it's still the same family," he said.
The advanced technology, user-friendly features and quality for which Navman is known will be incorporated into all future product ranges under the Northstar label, said the company.
Among many other benefits, Scott said the transition of the brands would allow for increased research and development, and result in a far greater range of advanced marine electronics.
Manufactured in NZ for the past 20 years, Navman said products will continue to be distributed by Navico in the Asia Pacific region while stocks last, and all existing Navman customers will continue to receive full warranty including extended and enhanced service levels through Navico's dealer and distribution network.
