Garmin GPSMAP 8610xsv 10-inch Combo GPS/Fishfinder with Garmin Navionics+ (GN+) [010-02091-51]

Product Introduction

Run your whole helm from one 10-inch screen. The Garmin GPSMAP 8610xsv combines a full HD IPS touchscreen, preloaded Garmin Navionics+ charts and built-in support for Garmin sonar, so you can navigate, fish and manage your boat's electronics without juggling separate displays. Add the transducer you want (sold separately), connect your radar, autopilot, cameras and instruments, and control it all from one chartplotter.

Why This Product?

Get one system that handles charts, sonar and boat networking together. You get preloaded Navionics+ coastal charts and inland mapping with Auto Guidance+, support for CHIRP, ClearVü, SideVü, Ultra High-Definition, Panoptix and LiveScope sonar, and SmartMode station controls that put docking, cruising, fishing and anchoring presets a touch away. Connect with NMEA 2000 and the Garmin Marine Network, and the GPSMAP 8610xsv becomes the control center for the rest of your electronics.

What Can I Use This Product For?

• Get where you're going with confidence: navigate with preloaded Navionics+ offshore, coastal and inland charts for the U.S. and Canada, with Auto Guidance+ for route planning (planning purposes only; it does not replace safe navigation practices).
• See what's under and around the boat: use built-in support for CHIRP traditional, CHIRP ClearVü and CHIRP SideVü scanning sonar, Ultra High-Definition scanning sonar with no black box required, and Panoptix and LiveScope sonar (transducers sold separately).
• Switch tasks in one touch: use SmartMode station controls for docking, cruising, fishing, anchoring and more.
• Build one connected helm: network sonar, radar, autopilots, instruments, cameras and multimedia over NMEA 2000 and the Garmin Marine Network, and share them across multiple screens.
• Monitor your engines at a glance: see RPM, fuel flow, temperature, trim and more for up to four compatible Mercury engines with the SmartCraft Connect gateway (sold separately).
• Plan trips and update maps from your phone: use Wi-Fi and the free ActiveCaptain app for OneChart, smart notifications, Garmin Quickdraw Community data and map updates.
• Race with sailing tools: use built-in Garmin SailAssist features for data, displays and prerace guidance.
