FLIR Ocean Scout Pro Marine Thermal Monocular

The FLIR Ocean Scout Pro delivers professional-grade thermal imaging for mariners who need reliable night vision in demanding conditions. Built around a 640 × 480 VOx microbolometer with a 30 Hz refresh rate, this handheld monocular detects human-sized heat signatures at distances up to 500 meters. The wide 32-degree field of view enables rapid area sweeps during nighttime navigation, man-overboard situations, or coordinated search and rescue operations. We stock this unit for serious boaters, maritime law enforcement, and commercial operators who require more than basic night optics.

FLIR engineered the Ocean Scout Pro specifically for harsh marine environments, earning it an IP67 waterproof rating and certification for drops up to 2 meters. The internal lithium-ion battery delivers up to 6 hours of continuous runtime, eliminating the need for field-swappable cells during extended patrols. Onboard storage capacity reaches 16 GB for capturing still images in standard image formats, while wireless video streaming through the Scout Pro App on iOS devices allows real-time sharing with crew or shore-based personnel. A standard 1/4-inch-20 tripod mount provides hands-free observation capability when mounted to helm stations or portable tripods. The included tactical storage pouch features loop webbing compatibility for secure carry, alongside a charge and interface cable, wrist lanyard, two rubber eyecups, and quick start guide.

Maritime professionals rely on the Ocean Scout Pro for applications where standard night vision falls short—detecting floating debris, identifying unlit vessels, locating swimmers in distress, or conducting harbor security sweeps after dark. The combination of long detection range and wide field of view makes it equally effective for recreational cruisers navigating unfamiliar anchorages and professional operators running nighttime charters. FLIR backs this unit with a 2-year base warranty plus an additional 3 years after registration.
