Garmin ECHOMAP™ Ultra 2 16" Chartplotter 166sv w/GN+ Mapping w/o Transducer

Experience Unmatched Clarity on the Water with the Garmin ECHOMAP Ultra 2 16" Chartplotter

Picture this: you're out on the water at dawn, chasing trophy fish in challenging conditions. The last thing you need is a cluttered screen or fuzzy sonar reads that leave you guessing. The Garmin ECHOMAP Ultra 2 16" chartplotter changes the game with its massive full HD display, delivering razor-sharp details for charts, sonar, and navigation. Tailored for dedicated anglers who demand precision, this powerhouse unit elevates your fishing strategy without a transducer included, giving you flexibility to pair it with your preferred setup.

Stunning Display for Big-Picture Fishing Insights

The 16-inch IPS touchscreen boasts 1920 x 1080 resolution, ensuring every fish arch, structure, and contour stands out vividly, even under direct sunlight. High-contrast color palettes make separating baitfish from predators effortless, while keyed assist alongside touch controls keeps operations smooth with gloves on or in rough seas. Anglers love how this expansive view lets you monitor multiple sonar sources and charts simultaneously, spotting patterns others miss.

Advanced Sonar Capabilities to Reveal Hidden Fish

Built-in support for the entire LiveScope lineup brings real-time sonar imagery to life, showing fish reactions as they happen—perfect for live bait presentations or trolling. Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonars paint photo-like images of the bottom and surroundings, complemented by CHIRP traditional sonar across multiple frequencies. Whether jigging deep structure or scanning shallows, these tools help you pinpoint prime spots with confidence.

Premium Mapping That Keeps You Ahead

Preloaded with Garmin Navionics+ inland and coastal charts, you'll get daily updates for up-to-date bathymetry, depth shading, and points of interest. Upgrade paths to Vision+ add satellite overlays and more for coastal adventures. Multi-band GPS delivers pinpoint accuracy, even in tricky coverage areas, while Quickdraw Contours lets you create personalized maps on the fly.

Seamless Connectivity for a Fully Integrated Boat

Wireless networking shares user data between compatible units, NMEA 2000 compatibility links to engines, autopilots, and audio, and Bluetooth voice control frees your hands for rod work. Pair with the ActiveCaptain app for screen recordings to analyze hot bites later, community-shared data, and effortless updates. HDMI output mirrors your display on a secondary screen for crew briefings or helm stations.

Rugged Build and Versatile Mounting

Rated IPX7 waterproof, this 9.5 lb unit withstands splashes and spray. Bail mount with adjustable knobs or flush options fit any console, tilting for the perfect angle. Power it reliably from 9-18 Vdc sources, drawing efficiently for long days out.
