A one man Navigation and Sonar Reconnaissance unit.
The Navigator is a second generation Sonar Imaging and Navigation System, designed by Shark Marine primarily for MCM and SAR use.
The Navigator is in use by many of the worlds Navies, and has become a trusted piece of their standard kit and reshaped many of their SOPs. The modularity of the system and numerous advanced sensors available allow the Navigator to become a force multiplier, enabling smaller groups to cover more ground in less time.
Many Police forces and Fire Departments are also using the Navigator in homeland security / search and recovery roles as well as scientific organizations, and commercial dive companies.
The Navigator is the most modular system of its kind, enabling it to be quickly configured for any application. The modularity of the system also means that it will never become obsolete, as technology advances in certain areas these components can be replaced, rather then needing to replace the entire system. Shark Marine’s DiveLog software controls all operations of the navigator and its accessories, operators need only learn one software to master all their equipment.

The Surface GPS can be used when the Navigator is functioning on the surface. It also works well as a rapidly deployed system where it would provide the initial position fix for the DNS.
The Floating GPS provides positioning in shallow waters. This system can also be periodically deployed to the surface to remove any time accumulated error when using the DNS for long range covert operations.
The Navigator Pole GPS was designed for use with the Rapid Beach Profiling system, or other applications where the operator will be swimming on the surface.
The Doppler Navigation System tracks the divers movement over the sea floor. As a result it does not require a satellite fix or base stations once its initial position has been set. The DNS is an ideal set up for covert rapid deployments (when paired with the surface GPS) or to fill in any gaps caused by acoustic shadows when using the LBL system.
Shark Marines LBL system provides high precision underwater navigation without the need for a floating GPS or tethers to the surface. This system can use 2 or 3 base stations which can be rapidly deployed from any small craft or by a diver. The LBL is the system of choice for any long duration underwater searches.
The PRO-MAG is a high sensitivity Overhauser Magnetometer that can be equipped on the Navigator to locate objects with ferrous content. 
The Ebinger 725K is a field proven, valuable tool for underwater ordnance detection. When integrated with the NAVIGATOR its abilities are further enhanced with the addition of a visual data display and the navigational features of the system.
The Shark Marine radiation detector is a plug and play unit designed to detect gamma radiation underwater.

Transom Mounted Altimeter Sonar:
Designed for use in zero visibility situations, or for operations where a low light signature is required, the Underwater Head Mounted Display (UHMD) brings the NAVIGATORS display right to the divers mask. The UHMD is available as a monocular or binocular version. Mounts are also available for different masks or helmets.
The NavNam is a plug-and-play digital camera that mounts onto the Navigator. It can capture still images up to 1920 x 1080 and video up to 1280 x 720, which are geo-referenced (if a position is available), and digitally stored in the DiveLog project.
Sub-NET is an underwater communication system that allows multiple Navigators to communicate with one another or to surface vessels or other assets. Sub-NET also allows connected Navigators / other assets, to share their locations with one another, as well as send target information and waypoints.
The MAKO DDS marks a new evolution in diver transportation by combining a propulsion device with the Shark Marine Navigator. The combination provides a system that is capable of automated flight paths, from a simple “Goto Target” to complex survey routes, while providing the diver with full navigation and forward looking sonar imagery to locate and view targets up to 300 meters (904′) away.
The Nav Light provides even lighting to aid in capturing video or still images of targets using the NavCam. Can also be used simply for the diver’s vision.
Designed for boat operations the Pole Mounted Sonar System allows the operator to search large areas with geo-referenced forward looking sonar, and collect bathymetric / beach profile information.
