Built-in Sonar Capabilities
Right out of the box, you have access to some amazing sonar capabilities; all
you add are transducers. Comes with built-in Garmin 1 kW CHIRP sonar and CHIRP
ClearVü scanning sonar. It even supports Panoptix all-seeing sonar, premium
Garmin sonar modules and a wide range of transducers (sold separately).
Networked combos can share their internal sonar with any other device on the

for example, radar, time of day or GPS speed.
Heading and Position Refreshed 10 Times per Second
Fast, responsive built-in 10 Hz GPS and GLONASS receiver refreshes your
position and heading 10 times each second to make your movement on the screen
more fluid. It makes dropping up to 5,000 accurate waypoints — and finding
your way back to them — quick and easy.
Preloaded with Exceptional Garmin Cartography
You get both LakeVü HD inland
waters mapping and BlueChart g2 HD coastal
charts.
LakeVü HD provides highly detailed freshwater maps that include 17,000+ U.S.
lakes, rivers and reservoirs. Included in those are more than 13,000 HD lakes
with 1-foot contours shoreline to shoreline. Upgrade to LakeVü
HD Ultra with Max Def Lakes.
BlueChart g2 HD provides basic coastal charts, tidal stations, currents, depth
contours, IALA symbols and fishing charts. It also transitions smoothly
between zoom levels and delivers seamless continuity across chart boundaries.

Upgrade to Our Best Maps on the Water
Includes expandable memory for accessory map purchases, such as BlueChart®
g2 Vision® HD, which adds Garmin patented Auto Guidance¹ and other great
features.
Quickdraw Contours to Create Your Own HD Maps
Instantly create personalized HD fishing maps on-screen with 1-foot contours.
Tailor them to fit your needs. These are your maps — you own them. Keep the
data to yourself, or share it with the Quickdraw
Community on Garmin Connect™.
Built-in SailAssist Features
To help you gain a wind-maximizing competitive edge, your chartplotter
features a pre-race guidance page that shows your virtual starting line along
with data fields showing laylines, time to burn before the start and a race
timer that can be synchronized across all your networked Garmin GPS products.
In addition, other supported sailing features include an enhanced wind rose,
heading and course-over-ground lines, set and drift, true and apparent wind
data and more.
GPX Waypoints Transfer
If you have waypoints, tracks or frequently used routes stored on another
manufacturer’s GPS product — or on a Garmin handheld device — it’s easy to
transfer those items to your new Garmin chartplotter via industry-standard GPX
software formatting.
