The Furuno PB150 is part of an updated vessel weather information and an essential part of the boating experience. Furuno has joined forces with Airmar to bring you the Ultimate Weather Station. With our Ultimate Weather Station, you have your own personal weatherman on-board the boat 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!

The Furuno PB150 has no moving parts to ensure reliable operation. Information from the PB150 is output as NMEA0183 data and can be sent to a number of devices, such as a PC, Chart Plotter or RD30 NMEA Data Repeater. An optional NMEA data combiner is available to mix data from multiple sources and send combined data to multiple devices.
By combining Furuno’s popular RD30 Nav Data Repeater with the PB150 Weather Station, you can now display important weather information in a large, easy-to-read format. As an added bonus, the PB150 has been fitted with an internal compass as well as a state-of-the-art Furuno GPS sensor, allowing you to utilize the PB150 as a backup GPS navigator.


The enhanced Furuno PB150 Ultrasonic WeatherStation® Instrument features higher-accuracy temperature readings and improved wind speed and direction accuracy. WeatherCaster™ PC Software version 2.0 puts your own personal weatherman on-board the boat, 24 hours a day. The easy-to-use program has multiple screen views and advanced setup features to customize what you want to see. No Computer on board—no problem, just connect the PB150 to a NMEA 0183 display for up-to-the-minute weather information.

Before Leaving the Dock — Decide if you want to spend your day on the water. Anticipate weather fronts by checking the wind speed and direction, temperature, and barometric pressure. Check the weather history graphs, as the Furuno WeatherCaster™ Software can store readings for up to 72 hours.

Underway — Monitor up-to-the-minute weather conditions at your location. See where and when the fish will bite best based on wind conditions and a rising or falling barometer.

Docking — The on-board PC or chart plotter can display true wind data to make docking a vessel in high wind a breeze.
