A great addition for fishing and boating
This compact combo unit brings together essential fishing and navigation features in one housing. ECHOMAP Plus 42cv is easy to install and operate, while its 4.3” display remains readable during sunny days on the water.
With CHIRP sonar and ClearVü scanning, the unit gives you a strong view of what is below the boat, while the built-in GPS lets you save waypoints, follow routes and return to productive fishing spots.
The difference Garmin CHIRP makes
Traditional Garmin CHIRP sonar delivers improved clarity, better target separation and more detail than basic sonar. This makes it easier to identify fish, structures and bottom transitions across different depths and fishing conditions.
Clear scanning sonar images
ClearVü scanning sonar provides nearly photographic images of objects and structure beneath the boat. It helps you distinguish fish from timber, rocks, bottom transitions and other underwater features more easily.
Quickdraw Contours for building your own maps
Built-in Quickdraw Contours lets you create your own HD fishing maps in real time, with 1 ft contour lines. This is especially useful for anglers fishing local waters who want to keep their own detailed maps and fishing spots.
