Chart Your Course
This rugged, waterproof
chartplotter comes preloaded with BlueChart® g2 data for the U.S.
coast, including Alaska and Hawaii. This detailed map data
includes 3D maps, tide and current data, improved IALA symbols,
navaids, marinas, boat ramps, coastal roads and more. There's even
a database of aerial photos, detailed roads and points of interest
that you can reference for "real picture" views of harbors and
marinas. The 498 can also accept preloaded data cards for
additional map coverage.
Catch Some Fish
The 498 comes with a built-in
500-watt (RMS) sounder with enough power to track fish deep
underwater, yet precise enough to perform well in shallow water as
well. The sounder features Ultrascroll™ for high-speed screen
updates and can show both the sonar and map on the screen at the
same time. And, it can even connect to another chartplotter with
Garmin's proprietary CANet® connection.
