Garmin GPSMAP 740 GPS Chartplotter

THE GARMIN GPSMAP 740

With a wide panoramic display, these affordable new systems bring fully menu-driven touchscreen control and radar interface to a compact standalone chartplotter. They offer a great value for any boat or budget. The GPSMAP 700 series features a sleek 7-inch WVGA color display with a built-in high-sensitivity GPS receiver. Full NMEA 2000 connectivity is offered for engine, fuel, VHF, autopilot and other data monitoring. In addition, a standard radar port lets users connect with any Garmin GMR series marine radar for target scanning on the chartplotter screen. By adding the optional GXM 51 receiver you get XM Satellite Radio and XM WX Satellite Weather capability for weather forecasting and storm tracking on the chartplotter (North America only; subscription required). Both the GPSMAP 720 series and 740 series models ship preloaded with a worldwide marine basemap, which you can easily enhance with optional BlueChart g2 or g2 Vision cards for expanded coverage of specific regions. In addition to its digital basemap, the Garmin GPSMAP 740 model also ships preloaded with detailed offshore maps for all U.S. coastal areas, including Alaska and Hawaii, plus Explorer Chart data for the Bahamas. By simply plugging in an optional BlueChart g2 Vision card, mariners can upgrade to premium features such as highresolution satellite imagery, Auto Guidance, aerial reference photos, and true 3D visual map perspective with both MarinerEye and FishEye views. Both the 720s and 740s feature a powerful digital sounder with built-in 1,000-watt RMS capable sonar. The sonar can scan for fish, structure or other items of interest lurking as deep as 2,000 feet / 600 meters (with 1kW transducer).

Note: some advanced radar features such as Map Overlay, MARPA tracking and Dual Range display are not supported on the GPSMAP 700 series products.
