Garmin GPSMAP86sc Reman Handheld GPS With BlueChart g3 U.S. Product Description

Why Choose the Garmin GPSMAP 86sc for Your Next Marine Adventure?

Imagine heading out on the water without worrying about losing your way or your device. The Garmin GPSMAP 86sc remanufactured handheld GPS delivers that confidence with its rugged, floating design that's built to handle the harshest marine conditions. Anglers chasing trophy fish, sailors navigating tricky inlets, and cruisers exploring coastal waters all rely on its precision and reliability. Unlike basic GPS units, this one integrates seamlessly with your boat's systems, turning it into an indispensable tool that enhances safety and enjoyment on every outing.

What sets it apart? A vibrant 3-inch sunlight-readable display ensures clear visibility even under glaring sun, while button-only operation keeps things simple with wet hands or gloves. It's more than a navigator—it's a system extender that pulls in real-time data from your chartplotter, acts as a remote for your autopilot, and even controls compatible audio gear for on-water entertainment.

Rugged Build for Real-World Waters

Crafted with a water-resistant IPX7 rating, the GPSMAP 86sc floats face-up if dropped overboard, so you never lose it to a wave. Its compact dimensions—2.65 x 7 x 1.7 inches—and lightweight 9.59 oz build make it easy to clip on, pocket, or toss in a tackle box. The transflective 65K color TFT display with 240 x 400 resolution punches above its weight in brightness, rivaling larger units without draining power.

  • High-sensitivity GPS receiver locks onto satellites quickly, even in challenging environments like deep canyons or dense fog.
  • Tilt-compensated 3-axis compass and barometric altimeter provide accurate headings and elevation data over rough seas.
  • Adjustable GPS filter minimizes erratic readings from boat wakes or swells, giving smoother speed and course info.

Stay Connected and in Control

Wireless magic brings this handheld alive: Pair via Bluetooth, ANT+, or Wi-Fi with your smartphone for smart notifications—texts, calls, and alerts without digging for your phone. Sync with the Garmin Explore platform to manage waypoints and routes from anywhere. Onboard, it streams data from compatible chartplotters and instruments, consolidating dash info at your fingertips.

As a remote, control your Garmin autopilot for hands-free steering or tweak FUSION marine stereo volumes mid-voyage. High-speed USB and NMEA 0183 interfaces ensure broad compatibility with existing setups.

Endurance for Extended Expeditions

Power through long days with a rechargeable lithium-ion battery offering 40 hours in standard mode or an impressive 200 hours in expedition mode. That's multi-day reliability without constant recharges, perfect for offshore runs or remote anchoring.

Garmin Connect compatibility lets you analyze trips post-voyage, sharing data on performance, routes, and catches with fellow enthusiasts.
