The GPSMAP® 8610xsv chartplotter features a 10 in full HD in-plane switching touchscreen display for wider viewing angles, superior clarity and sunlight readability, even with polarized sunglasses. It offers built-in support for our industry-leading sonar, including dual-channel 1 kW traditional CHIRP, CHIRP ClearVü™ and CHIRP SideVü™ scanning sonars plus built-in support for Ultra High-Definition scanning (no black box required). It also supports Panoptix™ and LiveScope™ sonar products and a wide range of other transducers (sold separately). The device is preloaded with Garmin Navionics+™ coastal charts and inland mapping that feature Auto Guidance+™ technology (Auto Guidance+ is for planning purposes only and does not replace safe navigation operations) for confidence in helping you get where you need to go. Plus, there's support for optional Garmin Navionics Vision+™ premium map content.
Experience superior connectivity and networking solutions with complete control of your entire system, right at your fingertips. The chartplotter includes a premium-performance processor for our fastest map drawing, superior networking, video distribution and more. Multiple displays can be flat mounted edge-to-edge to create a sleek glass helm look or mounted flush. NMEA 2000® networking and the Garmin Marine Network allow you to build your full marine electronics suite - from radar and autopilots to cameras and instruments - controlled from your chartplotter and shared across multiple screens. With SmartMode™ station controls, everything is designed to give you quick, one-touch access to the information you need to ease high-stress situations such as docking. For full control of your boat on your chartplotter screen, use the OneHelm™ feature to connect to many compatible third-party devices. Built-in Garmin SailAssist™ features provide data, displays and prerace guidance to help you gain a competitive edge. Download the ActiveCaptain® app to your compatible smartphone or tablet to manage your marine experience - from trip planning and prefishing to purchasing, downloading and updating maps. See RPMs, fuel flow, temperature, trim and more for up to four compatible Mercury® engines by using the SmartCraft® Connect gateway.
