What you get

Marlin on the boat. Ocean Hub to review trips from anywhere.

Marlin detects and sizes fish live on the display you already own. Marlin Connect is an optional second screen on your phone. The Ocean Hub keeps every trip and is free, with or without a box.

Ocean Hub

Free web app for every trip. Upload recordings from your sonar's SD card, or sync from your Marlin at the dock. Replay the day, find hotspots, plan the next one. Pro adds daily satellite maps.

Two ways in. One Ocean Hub.

Two paths lead to the Ocean Hub. With a Marlin box: your sonar display feeds live sonar to the Marlin box over Ethernet; the box runs the Marlin live app with no internet, and you use that app either in the display's own browser or in the Marlin Connect app on a phone or tablet over the box's Wi-Fi hotspot or the same Wi-Fi network; at the dock the box syncs your trips to the Ocean Hub over marina Wi-Fi. Without a Marlin: record sonar to your display's SD card and upload the file to the Ocean Hub, which runs AI detection on it.

Marlin edge AI box

The brains of your boat.

A sealed aluminium computer that runs Ocean AID's fish-detection models on board. No signal required.

Marlin is an edge AI computer built for the helm. It powers on with the boat, runs on 12 V and sips power while it works. Everything runs on the box, so it works the same offshore as it does at the dock.

Full specifications on oceanaid.ca

The black finned Marlin edge AI box

Two models

Marlin T40 or T120?

Same box, same ports, same software. The T120 adds memory, storage headroom and faster real-time detection, and it's built for what comes next.

Both run the full Marlin live app and every feature available today. Choose the T120 for the more powerful chip and for what's next, starting with Captain Codas.

Marlin Connect · the mobile app

Built for wet hands and direct sun: big targets and high contrast.

  • Live sonar and detections from your Marlin
  • Live map with your track, depth and speed
  • Trips and marks saved as you go
  • Captain Codas Coming soon. A fishing AI you can talk to. Requires a Marlin T120.
