BlueChart g2 Vision
An optional, preprogrammed BlueChart g2 Vision data card allows you to get the most out of your chartplotter.
In addition to detailed marine charting, BlueChart g2 Vision has the following features:
• Mariner’s eye 3D (
page 17 )—provides a view from above and behind the boat for a three-dimensional
navigation aid. The BlueChart g2 Vision Mariner’s Eye 3D is more detailed than the pre-loaded data.
• Fish eye 3D ( page 18 )—provides an underwater, three-dimensional view that visually represents the
sea floor according to the information on the chart.
• Fishing Charts ( page 19 )—shows the chart with enhanced bottom contours and without navigational data.
This chart works well for offshore deep-sea fishing.
• High Resolution Satellite Imagery ( page 20 )—provides high-resolution satellite images for a realistic
view of the land and water on the Navigation chart.
