• Clearer scanning sonar - shows you more of what is in the water around your boat. This high-frequency sonar gives near-photographic images with detailed representations of objects, structure and fish.

  • Preloaded BlueChart g2 charts for the coastal U.S.
  • Clear scanning sonar - the CV Series comes with built-in 500 w Chirp traditional sonar and Chirp clearvü scanning sonar. The SV Series offers all of the same Features Plus Chirp sidevü scanning sonar.
  • Best-in-class Internal 5 Hz GPS - Internal 5 Hz GPS updates position and heading 5 times per second to make marking and returning accurately to waypoints easier.

Works great!, Comes with Blue Charts installed and I had Lake Vu HD on an Micro SD card I added to it. Using it in a 22ft Deck Boat for the Lake and occasional Trip in the River.

I really don’t know how a person could do better for the price. Easy to use, easy to install, works great.

We are going to the Florida keys. This will be awesome for fishing and boating!

I installed this on my Seaswirl Striper 1851 Walkaround boat and it's been great so far! Intuitive menus and a nice bright and easy to read screen (even in the sun). The plastic mount feels nice and solid. The whole unit just pops off from the plastic mount so you can take it with you when you park your boat (a great safety/anti-theft feature). It came preset with maps for Hawaii (though my last unit did show more points of interest). I generally go out in offshore Hawaii waters and troll for fish. I placed the transducer a reasonable distance from my main outboard motor and followed the included instructions for the right angle and such. It just worked right out of the box! Overall a great deal for the price and feature-set.

i like it reads deep i have been out to about 850ft and gps seems accurate

Many different screens, charts and functions to mention. Half a season of use and I can't wait for more! Depth finder and fish finder functions are so easy and worth the cost!

Another great Garmin product, I've owned three now. Like the clarity and the high speed capabilities. The feature that let's you map out and draw your own charts in detail for a small area not already in the memory is phenomenal.

Great product! Works as advertised! Arrived earlier than expected

Wait till you upgrade to panoptix. Holy cow!

This thing is awesome!! Love everything about this unit!! Big screen easily seen anywhere in my 18 ft boat. Great alarms, tide table charts, and accuracy when marking fish. We went dipnetting at the mouth of the Kenai river when sockeye & chinook salmon were schooling below the boat and seals were chasing them, really cool to watch on the fishfinder! Depth is extremely accurate!
