Garmin MapSource Bluechart Marine CD-Americas
Model - GAX10317
BlueChart™ cartography is GARMIN’s exclusive marine cartography. It complements GARMIN’s new line of handheld mapping products and marine chartplotters. This line of cartography products is designed to provide interactive viewing of detailed nautical chart data, thereby providing navigators with innovative object-oriented cartography. These detailed electronic nautical charts look just like paper charts when displayed on your GARMIN chartplotter. Descriptive details for features typically found on nautical charts can easily be viewed with a simple key press. Cursor movements over the chart provide descriptions for contour depths, chart number, navaid name, and much more. BlueChart data will include shaded depth contours, inter-tidal zones, spot soundings, wrecks, navaids, port plans, restricted areas, cable areas, anchorages, and more. Additionally, BlueCharts include information from the paper chart used in the digitization process such as chart number, name, scale, revision date, and Notice-to-Mariners date.

Paired with any of GARMIN's new plotters, this cartography provides the detail of paper charts, giving you twice the coverage area of typical charts for half the price. Compatible products include the following GARMIN marine chartplotters GPSMAP 162/168, GPSMAP 176/176C, GPSMAP 276C, GPSMAP 172C, GPSMAP 178C, GPSMAP 182/182C, GPSMAP 188/188C, GPSMAP 232/238, GPSMAP 2006/2010 and GPSMAP 3006/3010. The eTrex Legend, eTrex Vista, Rino 120/130, GPSMAP 76/76S, GPSMAP 60C/60CS, GPSMAP 76C/76CS, iQue 3600 are also compatible with GARMIN MapSource BlueChart on CD-ROM.
