flowscan alternative?

Northstar is out of business, they were acquired by Simrad awhile back. It's my understanding that they no longer produce any Northstar products anymore. Something to consider if you can still find the F210.

Hi Rich,
Clearly being in the biz, you're far more likely to know what is up at Northstar than I, but unless this just happened, I'm pretty sure Northstar is not out of business because I spoke to them last week about a WAAS programming issue and they were very helpful. Their sensors are the last 2 entries on your catalog link.

My understanding was that Simrad Yachting and Lowrance Electronics merged in 2006 becoming Norway's Navico. They purchased Northstar, Navman, and MX Marine from Brunswick New Technologies in '07.

Last I heard Navico are now parent company of Simrad, Lowrance, Eagle, Northstar, MX Marine and B&G. They are the largest recreational marine electronics group. Recently the NAVMAN line was rolled into the Northstar brand as the lines were only badged differently.
