Product description

GPSMAP 4208

The power of networking meets the brilliance of great design in this chartplotter, which serves as your all-in-one "nerve center" for the Garmin Marine Network. With an "8.4" diagonal VGA screen display, this unit combines video-quality resolution and luminous color with the latest in sensor and data options.

With its counterpart, the GPSMAP 4212, the 4208 includes U.S. detailed offshore maps with Bluechart g2 coverage of the USA and Bahamas.

See detail-rich imagery like never before

The GPSMAP 4208 features worldwide satellite imagery to enhance the standard vector basemap format. This unit also offers the optional BlueChart g2 Vision SD data card, which provides high-resolution aerial reference photos for help navigating tricky harbors and channels or locating spots like area marinas, fuel stops or restaurants. The g2 Vision plug-in data card also allows the GPSMAP 4208 to graphically depict a true 3D "mariners eye" topside view or "fish eye" underwater navigation perspective.

Experience super simple user interface for easy operation

With fewer buttons to push and fewer operational steps to navigate, the GPSMAP 4208s simplified menu format makes it easy for you to see and select the data you want to access on-screen.

Simplify navigation with Auto Guidance

Optional g2 Vision auto guidance technology will help simplify your navigation. It's like having a knowledgeable guide to local hazards and waterways always on deck. Auto Guidance searches all the chart features to suggest the best-known charted route for navigation.

GSD 22

Add depth to your chartplotter view with the GSDT 20 series remote sounders. The GSD 21, a powerful analog sonar, along with the GSD 22, Garmin's first digital sonar, are robust units designed to operate with stand-alone chartplotters or integrate with the Garmin CANetT and Marine Networks.

The GSD 22 is a powerful remote sounder that plugs directly into the Garmin Marine Network for use with our network chartplotters or into the new Garmin CANetT for use with the 292/392/492 series chartplotters. UltrascrollT technology keeps the display scrolling at live-action speeds, while the units digital design and up to 2 kW of transmit power (depending on transducer used) provide extraordinary target definition and deep water performance. Transmit power and receiver gain automatically adjust to produce excellent shallow water performance as well. The GSD 22 is dual frequency (200/50 kHz) and works with everything from a standard 500 W transom mount transducer to heavy-duty 2 kW thru-hull or in-hull transducers. Reaches depths to 5,000 feet.

Please Note: This product does not include a transducer. Garmin offers a complete selection of transducers to be purchased separately as accessories.

GDL 30A - Delivering real-time weather data to mariners like never before

The GDLT 30A weather/audio satellite receiver brings XM satellite weather data and XM satellite radio directly to your Garmin chartplotter without the need for a separate PC interface.

View Weather on your Plotter

Mariners using the GDL 30A receiver can view the same leading-edge satellite weather data provided to television meterologists across the United States. The GDL 30A receives XM WX Satellite Weather data, including animated NEXRAD weather radar and forecasts, current conditions, surface air pressure, visibility, precipitation, wind data, wave data, storm cell size, speed and direction and surface temperatures, for your boat?s current location or along a projected path. This information appears right on the Map page of your chartplotter, so you can see how the weather will affect your current position.

Listen to Music

With the GDL 30A, you can also receive XM Satellite Radio. The GDL 30A allows you to connect your chartplotter to your on-board stereo to broadcast 120 channels of non-stop music, sports, news and talk.

Connect to the Garmin Marine Network

To take advantage of this detailed information, just connect your GDL 30A to the Garmin Marine Network, which sends the XM weather and radio data over the entire network, so any chartplotter can access and control it. You can choose one of several subscription packages that offer different types of services.

The GDL 30A provides weather data and audio entertainment for the United States (except Alaska and Hawaii) only. For more information about coverage, see the XM Satellite Radio website.
