GPSMAP 5008
This
flagship marine navigator is missing just one thing - buttons...
The GPSMAP 5008 features an unprecedented touchscreen interface,
along with a satellite-enhanced worldwide basemap and an 8.4"
screen that makes navigation as easy as pointing your finger.
By connecting to the Garmin Marine Network, you can add sonar, radar
and weather. For even more advanced features, you can add the optional
BlueChart® g2 Vision card.
View
Detailed Graphics and Video. The GPSMAP 5008 features a worldwide
basemap with high-quality satellite images in place of more traditional
maps. For even more detail, you can add maps easily with the SD
card slot without having to connect to a computer. To keep tabs
on your engine room or other area of your boat, you can connect
a live video feed with the 5008's video input/output options.
Add
Extras with BlueChart g2 Vision. With the optional BlueChart
g2 Vision SD card, you can add a whole new dimension of exceptional
features to your chartplotter.
• 3D mariner's eye view or fish eye view provides you with
a 3-dimensionsl perspective of map information, both above the
waterline and below it.
• High-resolution satellite images and aerial photographs
help you orient yourself in unfamiliar areas.
• Auto Guidance technology searches through all relevant
charts to create a route you can actually follow - one that avoids
obstacles, shallow water, buoys and other obstructions.
Connect
to the Garmin Marine Network. The GPSMAP 5008 connects easily
to the high-speed Garmin Marine Network, so you can interface
with additional MFDs and add remote sensors. Once connected, you
can share information between the 4008 and other chartplotters
on your boat. You can also add high-powered radar, sonar and XM
satellite weather and radio to your system.
