Standout Features for Smarter On-Water Decisions

Auto Guidance Technology

Let smart routing take the guesswork out of passage planning. Input your boat's draft and overhead clearance, and it generates a suggested path, highlighting potential hazards and optimizing your route for safety and speed—perfect for threading through narrow channels or avoiding shallows near Fiji-like island groups.

Depth Range Shading

Visualize up to 10 customizable depth bands at a glance. Tailor the display to your fishing depth or cruising needs, making it easier to spot drop-offs or safe anchoring zones without constant adjustments.

Ultra-Detailed 1-Foot Contours

Gain a precise picture of underwater terrain with contours as fine as one foot. This level of detail shines for anglers targeting structure in marinas, swamps, or canals, and helps cruisers avoid hidden rocks in less-charted areas.

Shallow Water Shading

Set your own shallow-water threshold, and watch risky zones light up on screen. Ideal for low-tide runs or exploring uncharted bays, this feature keeps you from grounding in unfamiliar territory.

Why Boaters Rely on These Charts

Fishermen appreciate the bottom structure clarity for spotting wrecks and reefs, while cruisers value the harbor details for stress-free arrivals. Loaded onto a microSD or SD card, they're plug-and-play with compatible Garmin chartplotters, updating your display instantly. Real-world users report fewer close calls and more productive days on the water, thanks to the fusion of high-res data and intuitive overlays.

For those venturing into PNG ports like Port Moresby or NZ's Chatham Islands, the expanded island coverage adds peace of mind on longer expeditions. Pair with your plotter's sonar for a complete situational awareness suite.
