Garmin GPSMAP8616 16 Plotter With US and Canada GN+ Product Description
Transform your boating adventures with the Garmin GPSMAP 8616, a powerhouse 16-inch chartplotter designed for captains who demand precision, clarity, and seamless control on the water. Whether you're navigating coastal waters, exploring inland lakes, or competing in sail races, this display delivers stunning visuals and smart features that keep you ahead of the curve. Preloaded with detailed Garmin Navionics+ charts covering the U.S. and Canada, it turns complex routes into effortless journeys, helping you focus on the thrill of the sea.
Superior Display for Unmatched Visibility
The 16-inch full HD in-plane switching (IPS) touchscreen shines in any condition, offering wide viewing angles that make it perfect for crowded helms or when wearing polarized sunglasses. Sunlight readability ensures you never miss a detail, even on the brightest days. Its anti-glare finish and edge-to-edge mounting options create a sleek, modern helm that looks as good as it performs.
Effortless Networking and Boat Integration
Build a fully connected marine ecosystem with NMEA 2000 and Garmin Marine Network support. Link radars, autopilots, sonar modules, cameras, and instruments for centralized control. ANT+ and Wi-Fi open doors to smartwatches like quatix, wireless sensors, and the ActiveCaptain app for real-time updates and community insights. OneHelm lets you command third-party devices directly from the screen, while SmartCraft Connect integration pulls engine data from up to four Mercury engines—RPM, fuel flow, temps, and more—at a glance.
Advanced Navigation with Auto Guidance+
Preloaded coastal and inland charts feature Auto Guidance+ technology, dynamically suggesting safe paths around obstacles (always pair with vigilant navigation). Upgrade to optional Vision+ for high-res satellite overlays, daily updates, and 3D views. Garmin Quickdraw Community lets you crowdsource custom maps, and SailAssist tools provide laylines, race timers, and wind data for competitive sailors chasing podium finishes.
Live Sonar and Smart Modes for Everyday Wins
Pair with the PS51 transducer for FrontVü forward-looking sonar, spotting shallows before they spot you. SmartMode presets switch setups instantly—docking mode zooms controls, fishing mode highlights sonar, cruising mode prioritizes charts. It's like having a co-pilot tailored to your activity.
Flexible Installation and Durability
At 15.1 x 10.3 x 3 inches and 9.6 lbs, it mounts flat for a glass-dash aesthetic or flush for traditional setups (pro installation recommended for edge mounts). IPX6/IPX7 water resistance laughs off spray and submersion, backed by a premium processor for lightning-fast panning and multi-screen sharing.
