Garmin BlueChart® g2 HD - HXPC415S - Port Stephens - Fowlers Bay - microSD™/SD™ Product Description
Explore Australia's Southeastern Coastline with Precision
Whether you're cruising the vibrant waters around Sydney Harbour, plotting a course through Tasmania's rugged islands, or anchoring near the bustling ports of Melbourne and Adelaide, this chart delivers the intricate details you need. Spanning from Port Stephens down to Fowlers Bay, it captures every twist and turn of the coastline, including Flinders and King Islands. Mariners rely on these maps to navigate busy shipping lanes, hidden coves, and intricate inlets with total assurance.
Imagine threading through narrow channels at low tide or spotting prime fishing grounds off the continental shelf—these charts turn potential hazards into seamless journeys. Built on a foundation of official hydrographic data blended with high-res private surveys, they reveal spot-on soundings, buoy positions, and marina layouts that keep you oriented no matter the conditions.
Standout Features for Smarter Navigation
- Depth Range Shading: Customize up to 10 shading levels to highlight your ideal fishing or sailing depths instantly—perfect for scanning shallows or deep drops in one glance.
- Ultra-Fine Contours: 1-foot intervals map the seabed's subtle rises and falls, revealing structure for trophy catches in marinas, swamps, or narrow canals.
- Shallow Water Highlighting: Set your own shallow threshold to visually flag risks, helping you skim reefs or beach a tender without drama.
- Tides, Currents, and Hazards: Real-time predictions and markers for safe passage through tidal gates like Bass Strait or Port Phillip Bay.
- Auto-Guidance Integration: Seamlessly pairs with compatible plotters to suggest optimal routes, dodging wrecks and no-go zones effortlessly.
These aren't just lines on a screen—they're your edge in unpredictable seas, from weekend getaways to extended coastal voyages.
Pro Tips for Maximum Chart Performance
Layer depth shading with high-contrast settings for dawn patrols, or zoom into 1-foot contours when hunting structure near shore. Pair with live sonar for hybrid views that merge real-time echoes with pre-mapped bathymetry. Always cross-check tides before committing to unfamiliar cuts—accuracy starts with preparation.
Bonus Insight: In areas like the Great Australian Bight, where swells build fast, rely on current arrows to time your runs and avoid beam seas.
