Enhance your boating safety and navigation with the Garmin GMR Fantom 54 Radar in sleek black. This powerful open-array radar system stands out by painting moving targets in vivid colors, delivering crystal-clear detection from intimate close-range scans to expansive 72-nautical-mile views—cutting through fog, rain, and clutter like never before. Whether you're dodging traffic in busy harbors or chasing prime fishing grounds, its intuitive design and cutting-edge features make it a game-changer for serious mariners.
Built for reliability, the GMR Fantom 54 packs 50 watts of transmit power into a compact, high-performance package. Its pulse compression technology sharpens resolution without draining your battery, while fast rotation speeds keep your display updated in real-time.
Go beyond basic radar with automated intelligence tailored for real-world boating. Dynamic adjustments handle varying conditions, so you focus on the helm, not the settings.
Automatically optimizes for calm inlets, choppy coastal waters, or open-ocean swells, reducing false echoes and revealing true targets effortlessly.
Pinpoint surface-feeding bird flocks, a telltale sign of baitfish below—ideal for anglers targeting trophy catches.
Trace target paths over time and set customizable alarms for intruders in your safe perimeter, enhancing collision avoidance.
Lock onto up to 30 moving objects for precise speed, course, and CPA (closest point of approach) data—a must for crowded waterways.
Pair it with dual-radar setups for redundancy across multiple displays, ensuring no blind spots on larger vessels.
Engineered to withstand harsh marine environments, this radar boasts IPX6 waterproofing and 80-knot wind resistance. Mount it confidently on motor yachts, sailboats, or center consoles.

Pro tip: For optimal overlay and tracking, integrate a compatible heading sensor to align radar perfectly with your charts.
Installation is straightforward with included hardware, 15-meter power and network cables, and a mounting template. No fiddly menus—plug into your Garmin chartplotter via Garmin Marine Network, and you're scanning in minutes. Adjust target size, scan averaging, or park the antenna via simple controls for customized performance.
In a world of fleeting blips, this radar delivers actionable intelligence. Fishermen spot dive-bombing gulls over reefs, cruisers evade pop-up squalls, and night pilots thread narrow channels with confidence. Its energy-efficient pulse compression means longer outings without recharging worries, while VRM/EBL tools provide pro-level range and bearing measurements at a glance.
MotionScope uses Doppler processing to color-code moving targets—approaching ones in green, receding in red—allowing quick identification of boats, birds, or weather without guesswork.
Yes, its 50W power and pulse compression excel in fog and rain, maintaining clear detection up to 72 nautical miles while dynamic sea filters suppress clutter.
Absolutely. With no complex settings, included cables, and mounting kit, it connects easily to Garmin chartplotters over the Marine Network for immediate use.
Dual-radar support provides redundancy, and data shares across compatible Garmin displays for comprehensive coverage on multi-station boats.
It automatically highlights bird flocks on the surface, signaling baitfish concentrations below—a proven tactic for locating hot fishing spots.
A heading sensor unlocks full MARPA tracking and precise overlays, while VRM/EBL features aid in measuring distances to landmarks or vessels.
From 6 meters close-in for docking to 72 nautical miles for horizon-scanning, with dual-range mode for simultaneous views.
GMR Fantom™ 54 Radar - Black
This open-array radar highlights moving targets in color and gives users excellent close- and long-range target detection — even in fog or rain.
Features:
High-Powered Radar
This 50-watt radar has a range from 20’ to 72 nautical miles, even in fog or rain. It offers rotation speeds of 24 RPM for reduced power consumption and 48 RPM for fast screen updates.
High-Resolution Radar
The 1.8-degree horizontal beamwidth provides a high-resolution image and high antenna gain to pick out even weak targets at a distance.
Motionscope Technology
MotionScope uses the Doppler effect to detect moving targets and highlight them in different colors so users can navigate around other boats or severe weather — or toward fishing spots where birds feed at the surface.
Intuitive Operation
This radar doesn’t have any complex user settings to deal with, so it’s easy to install and start using.
Target Size
Adjust the size of objects on the radar image.
Auto Bird Gain
Locate flocks of birds at the water’s surface where baitfish are also likely to be found.
Echo Trails
A historical “trail” is left on the screen to help users quickly and easily identify moving targets and potential collision threats.
Dual Range
A single radar antenna is capable of providing split-screen images on the chartplotter for both close and long range.
Dual-Radar Support
Using dual radar provides redundancy and allows each display unit on the boat to pull data from one of two different radar sources.
Dynamic Auto Gain
Gain automatically adjusts levels to optimum settings for harbors, near shore, and offshore in open waters.
Dynamic Sea Filter
Gain automatically adjusts sea clutter for calm, medium, and rough sea conditions.
Radar Overlay
Overlay radar images onto a chart plotter’s map page. Users can add an optional autopilot or heading sensor (sold separately) for best results.
MARPA Target Tracking
Mini-automatic radar plotting aid (MARPA) tracks up to 30 selected targets, helping users keep track of other vessels and avoid collisions.
Guard Zone
Set the safety zone, and receive an alarm when an object enters the zone.
VRM & EBL
Variable range markers (VRM) and electronic bearing lines (EBL) allow rapid measurements of distance and bearing to vessels and land.
