Took you some time !!! /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Should be a display setting, North Up / South Up (probable on an Aussie boat) or heading up.
 
Had similar problem on my recently repaired Raytheon, was 90 degees out! Wondered why when approaching cliffs off Fecamp they weren't where they were meant to be!
Don't know about Furuno, but on mine there was a sneakily hidden rubber trim under the display that pulled off revealing some tiny adjustment screws, one of which rotated the image any which way required..
Other surprise (to me anyway!) is that it had a JRC sticker in there !
 
i think you have a software glicht.


I remember on a friends furuno equipped boat the radar was arse about face. Port bow stuff was showing to stbd etc.


the local furuno man came and reset the unit and updated the software too at the same time. FOC.
 
all other bits seem to be ok ? chartplotter knows where i am going also depth sounder and fish finder are not looking at the sky but rader seems to be out of its mind?

port is starboard and the bow looks aft?

WILL READ the manual yet again.

then will contact Furuno.....
