For more than 140 million years the shark has relied on an unusual range of very special senses to survive. Evidence accumulated to date is impressive. A shark will, for example, detect and follow scents for a quarter mile. At over 600 feet, he will react sharply to audible noise, and minute pressure variations are sensed by lateral line organs at 100 feet. Then, at 50 feet, a highly reflective eye structure identifies shapes and detects motion in the ieeblest light. The shark can detect weak electric fields and possibly even be able to orient himself to the earth's electromagnetic field. In fact, there's probably no other crea- ture in the sea so completely aware of his environment. Furuno provides tremendous sensory input to operators of just about any vessel.
