Sleek Modern Design

Split to Fit
Experience the benefits of dual screens with the convenience of seamless control. Split-screen functionality lets you size and organize your display configuration to put the data you need right where you want it.
Two Mounting Options
A bail-mount option with inset knobs and a bracket supports unique “floating display” installations, while a rear-mount option is provided for secure flush- and flat-mount helm solutions.
Traditional and Scanning Sonar Support
Get built-in support for 1 kW CHIRP traditional sonar for superior target separation. Plus, Ultra High-Definition ClearVü™ and SideVü™ scanning sonars feature vivid, high-contrast color palettes to help distinguish fish from structure (transducer required; sold separately).
Live Sonar Support
Pair with Panoptix™ or LiveScope™ easy-to-interpret live sonar (transducer required; sold separately) to see all around your boat in real time.

Garmin Sailassist™ Sailing Features
View laylines, race start line guidance, enhanced wind rose, heading and course-over-ground lines, true wind data fields and tide/current/time slider, wind angle, set and drift, wind speed, and more.
Sailing Polars
Use the polar table to see key data, including how fast you should go at a certain wind angle and speed, so you know whether you need to adjust sail trim.
Garmin Marine Network
If you have multiple compatible Garmin devices on your boat, you can share information, such as maps, user data, radar, and IP camera video, among them.

Onehelm Feature

Send inReach® Device Messages
Pair your inReach satellite communicator3 to your chartplotter, and type custom messages by using your MFD’s on-screen keyboard. Access your contact list, or enter an email, inReach address, or phone number. You can also group messages by conversation for a texting-like experience.
Power-Pole® Shallow Water Anchor

Spend more time fishing, less time positioning.
