Marine Electronics - Forster-Tuncurry & Great Lakes
Marine Electronics – Forster–Tuncurry & Great Lakes
Shotgun Marine provides professional marine electronics supply, installation and servicing for boat owners across Forster, Tuncurry and the Great Lakes region.
From running the edges of Wallis Lake and Smiths Lake to heading offshore past Booti Booti, your electronics need to work properly in real conditions — not just look good on the dash.
That’s where experience, proper setup and honest advice make all the difference.
Marine Electronics Specialists – Not an Online Shop
Marine electronics aren’t plug-and-play. Power supply, transducer placement, network setup and configuration all affect how well your gear performs on the water.
At Shotgun Marine, we take a consult-first approach. We look at your boat, how you use it and where you run before recommending or installing any equipment.
No box-pushing. No brand bias. Just systems that suit your boat and the way you fish or cruise.
What We Do
- GPS chartplotters and sounder systems
- Traditional, CHIRP and live sonar installations
- Radar systems for coastal and offshore boating
- Autopilots for lake, coastal and offshore use
- VHF, AIS and marine communications
- System upgrades, networking and integration
- Fault finding, repairs and servicing
We work on everything from trailer boats and lake rigs through to offshore fishing boats and larger cruisers.
Authorised. Experienced. Straight-Up Advice.
Shotgun Marine is an authorised marine electronics service dealer for all major brands including Raymarine, Garmin, Simrad, Furuno, B&G and Coursemaster.
Because we’re authorised across multiple brands, we’re not tied to pushing one system over another. We recommend what actually suits your setup and local conditions around the Great Lakes.

Local Knowledge Matters
The Great Lakes region throws up its own challenges — shallow lake systems, sand movement, tidal flow and coastal bar conditions. Electronics need to be set up with that in mind.
We configure systems properly for local use, not factory defaults, so your gear performs when it counts. Not local? We also offer Australia-wide marine electronics consultations and system supply.
