Using Charts Your chartplotter has a worldwide basemap or BlueChart g2 cartography for either the USA shoreline or a specific country. • Navigation Chart-displays all relevant navigation data available on your preloaded maps, including buoys, lights, cables, depth soundings, marinas, and tide stations, in an overhead view. • Perspective 3D-provides a view from above and behind the boat (according to your course), and provides a visual navigation aid. • Split Navigation Chart-displays two different zoom levels of the Navigation chart at the same time. Mariner's Eye 3D charts and Fish Eye 3D charts are available only if you use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card. Fishing charts are available if you use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card or if your built-in map supports Fishing charts. • Fishing Chart-provides a view of the chart with enhanced bottom contours and without navigational data. This chart works well for offshore deep-sea fishing. • Fish Eye 3D-provides an underwater 3D view that visually represents the sea floor according to the information on the chart. Using Charts • Mariner's Eye 3D-provides a view from above and behind the boat as a three-dimensional navigation aid. The BlueChart g2 Vision Mariner's Eye 3D is more detailed than the preloaded data.
