Garmin Protective Cover f/GPSMAP® 12x3 Series Product Description
Shield Your Marine Chartplotter from Everyday Harshness
In the demanding world of boating, your Garmin GPSMAP 12x3 series chartplotter is your reliable navigator through choppy waters and foggy horizons. But when it's powered down after a long day on the water, it needs protection from the elements that never sleep—UV rays that fade screens, salt spray that corrodes edges, and accidental bumps in storage. This tailored protective cover steps in as your first line of defense, slipping on effortlessly to cradle the entire display without restricting access to ports or buttons.
Boaters know the frustration of a scratched bezel or sun-bleached interface ruining crisp sonar readings and detailed charts. Crafted specifically for models like the GPSMAP 1223, 1263, and 1263xsv, this cover ensures your investment stays pristine, ready for the next adventure. It's more than a slip-on; it's peace of mind for serious mariners who treat their gear like family.
Precision Fit and Durable Design
- Snug, Custom Contoured Fit: Designed to hug the contours of your 12-inch GPSMAP display perfectly, preventing slippage even in rough storage conditions on deck or in the cabin.
- UV and Scratch-Resistant Material: High-grade fabric blocks harmful sunlight while the soft inner lining shields against micro-abrasions from gear or dust.
- Easy On, Easy Off: Stretchable yet secure—deploy it in seconds when docking, and remove it just as quickly for powering up.
- Water-Resistant Barrier: Repels splashes and humidity, common foes in marine environments that can lead to fogging or long-term damage.
- Lightweight and Portable: Weighs next to nothing, folding compactly into your boating bag for trips ashore.
Unlike universal covers that flap around or gap awkwardly, this Garmin original integrates seamlessly with your setup, maintaining the sleek profile of your multifunction display.
Maximize Protection in Real-World Boating Scenarios
Picture this: You've just wrapped up a fishing tournament, your GPSMAP humming with waypoints and fishfinder data. Snap on the cover before stowing it under the console—now it's safe from toolbox scrapes or curious crew hands. For trailered boats left dockside, it combats relentless sun exposure that plagues electronics in open-air storage.
Pro tip for saltwater warriors: Pair it with routine fresh-water rinses on your chartplotter to extend the cover's lifespan. It's versatile for both weekend warriors and commercial operators, fitting right into your maintenance routine without adding bulk.
The Garmin Difference for Long-Lasting Gear
Opting for genuine Garmin accessories means engineering that matches your chartplotter's rugged build. This cover withstands the marine lifecycle—years of deployment, storage cycles, and exposure—without cracking or yellowing like cheaper alternatives. It's a small addition that preserves the vibrant touchscreen clarity essential for spotting reefs, tracking tides, or plotting safe returns in low visibility.
