Recently, our team at Amplex had the privilege of assisting the crew of a 2022 Everglades 455, a 45-ft center console boat, with a series of perplexing issues. This marine vessel, the pinnacle of Everglades’ craftsmanship, faced connectivity woes that threatened to dampen its journey. However, our team’s expertise here at Amplex, shows dedication to ensure a swift resolution, showing our commitment to marine electronics.

Inspecting the Garmin Marine Module

Upon inspection of the marine vessel when the crew reached out, our team identified a faulty KVH Hub disrupting both DirecTV reception and their internet connectivity. With efficiency and precision, we expedited the repair process, promptly returning the KVH Hub to full functionality. Delving deeper, we found a malfunctioning Garmin GXM54 module responsible for XM radio reception and vital functions like weather updates and fish mapping. Understanding the critical role these features play, especially for a fishing vessel, we quickly obtained and installed the necessary replacement part, swiftly restoring a seamless operation.
