Garmin GC255 Flush Mount Marine Camera Stainless Steel Housing

Imagine gliding into a tight marina slip at dusk, confident that every corner and obstacle is in clear view. The Garmin GC 255 flush-mount marine camera transforms that vision into reality, blending cutting-edge technology with a sophisticated stainless steel design that complements any vessel. This isn't just a camera—it's your extra set of eyes on the water, capturing crisp 1080p footage to boost safety and situational awareness during those critical docking maneuvers.

Superior Visibility for Seamless Docking

Crafted for boaters who demand precision, the GC 255 offers versatile viewing modes to match your needs. Switch between FishEye for a wide-angle panorama that reveals hidden hazards around the hull, or opt for standard views that deliver straightforward clarity. For those seeking an overhead perspective, the BirdsEye view provides unparalleled top-down insight—though professional calibration is essential for optimal accuracy. Guidance lines and distance markers further simplify navigation, helping you judge distances with ease and avoid scrapes or collisions in crowded marinas.

Even in low-light conditions, like early morning fog or nighttime returns, the camera shines with impressive infrared-enhanced performance, ensuring details remain sharp when visibility drops. Digital zoom and pan let you zero in on specifics without losing quality, making it ideal for inspecting moorings or monitoring blind spots from your helm.

Rugged Build Meets Seamless Integration

Built to withstand the harsh marine environment, the GC 255 features a thru-hull mounting system for a rock-solid, low-profile installation that won't snag lines or disrupt your boat's sleek lines. The stainless steel housing resists corrosion from saltwater exposure, promising years of reliable service. With an IPX7 rating, it shrugs off heavy rain, splashes, or brief submersion, keeping your view uninterrupted no matter the weather.

Integration is a breeze on the Garmin Marine Network or the innovative BlueNet system. Connect effortlessly to your compatible chartplotter to display up to four camera feeds at once, or share the view across multiple networked displays. This networked capability means the whole crew stays informed, from the captain to the deckhand, enhancing overall boat handling.

Practical Applications Beyond the Dock

While docking assistance is its forte, the GC 255 proves versatile across boating scenarios. Trailering your boat? Monitor the tow path. Fishing at dawn? Spot gear or underwater activity. Entertaining guests? Keep an eye on swimmers astern. Boaters on everything from center consoles to luxury yachts rave about how it eliminates guesswork, turning potential mishaps into smooth operations. Pair it with other Garmin marine electronics for a unified ecosystem that elevates your on-water experience.

Effortless Setup and Everyday Reliability

Installation starts with the thru-hull mount, securing the camera flush against the hull for minimal drag and maximum durability. Included adapters and cabling make wiring straightforward, whether you're extending video coax or linking to the network. Once powered up, calibration fine-tunes those guidance features, and you're ready to sail. Maintenance is minimal—rinse off salt after outings, and it stays ready for the next adventure.

Complete Package for Immediate Use

Everything you need arrives in one box: the GC 255 camera itself, a video adapter module for flexible connectivity, an 8-meter video coax cable for ample reach, a network adapter cable (small to large), comprehensive mounting hardware, and clear documentation to guide your setup. No hunting for extras—just unbox, install, and enhance your boating safety right away.

Why Boaters Choose the GC 255
