Finding your way through a sea of rocks, shoreline, and other obstacles can be tough. Garmin can lighten the load of navigation with there GPSMAP 498c. It features a powerful processor along with built-in bluechart g2 technology giving instant detail.
Easy Operation
Since Garmin had boaters in mind when designing this chartplotter, navigation and ease-of-use are top priority features. The mapping software uses a simple touchscreen to plot and map out data. From there you can choose to view 2D or 3D, whichever allows you to see where you are, and where you're heading.
Expandability
The ever changing climate and shore structure can be hard to predict. With this GPS, you can load additional data modules that can provide a higher level of detail or a broader map coverage area. Just install the data card, and the GPS reads and imports the data automatically.
Sounder
The built-in 500 Watt sounder allows the GPS to display high speed screen updates and can give the ability to communicate with another chartplotter for wider coverage.
