Charts and 3D Chart Views
The charts and 3D chart views that are available depend on the
map data and accessories used.
NOTE: 3D chart views are available with premium charts, in
some areas.
You can access the charts and 3D chart views by selecting
Charts.
Navigation Chart: Shows navigation data available on your pre-
loaded maps and from supplemental maps, if available. The
data includes buoys, lights, cables, depth soundings,
marinas, and tide stations in an overhead view.
Fishing Chart: Provides a detailed view of the bottom contours
and depth soundings on the chart. This chart removes
navigational data from the chart, provides detailed
bathymetric data, and enhances bottom contours for depth
recognition. This chart is best for offshore deep-sea fishing.
NOTE: The Fishing chart is available with premium charts, in
some areas.
Perspective 3D: Provides a view from above and behind the
boat (according to your course) and provides a visual
navigation aid. This view is helpful when navigating tricky
shoals, reefs, bridges, or channels, and is beneficial when
trying to identify entry and exit routes in unfamiliar harbors or
anchorages.
