Charts and 3D Chart Views

All GPSMAP 6000/7000 series chartplotters have a basic worldwide imagery map. The GPSMAP 6208, 6212,

7212, and 7215 chartplotters have built-in detailed BlueChart g2 offshore cartography for US waters. The

charts and 3D chart views listed below are available on the chartplotter.
Note: The Fishing chart, Mariner’s Eye 3D, and Fish Eye 3D are available with a preprogrammed BlueChart

g2 Vision data card (

page 21

).

Navigation Chart—shows navigation data available on your pre-loaded maps and from supplemental

maps, if available. The data includes buoys, lights, cables, depth soundings, marinas, and tide stations in an

overhead view (
