Garmin echoMAP CHIRP 45cv is a chartplotter with a 4.3-inch colour display and keypad control. The Garmin CHIRP chartplotter is waterproof to IPX7 standards and is preloaded with BlueChart g2 maps of Uk, Ireland and North West mainland Europe coast. You can use sonar to see where fish are with Panoptix all-seeing sonar support (transducer not included).

The chartplotter always shows your current position with Internal 5Hz GPS/GLONASS which updates your position and heading 5 times per second. DownVu are built-in to the echoMAP CHIRP 45cv enabling you to see directly below your boat or yacht. The maximum depth of the sonar depends on water conditions and is: 2300ft in freshwater and 1100ft in saltwater. You can also connect the CHIRP 45cv chartplotter to work with NMEA 0183 to display engine data, sensors, autopilots and more including distress signals that transmit your GPS location. Plus you can add up a number of waypoints for the chartplotter to store and navigate back to.

Sonar-recording capabilities enable you to track the boats position and save digital information. Plus you can playback on a computer using HomePort software and share waypoints and routes between multiple devices.

The powering of the Garmin echoMAP CHIRP 45cv is done simply with a power cord so you can simply install and demount the chartplotter quickly and easily.

Quickdraw Contours feature enables you to create custom HD mapping with the creation software. Personalised HD fishing maps feature 30 centimetre contours on screen. You can use a Panoptix transducer, HD-ID sonar, CHIRP-enabled transducer, Garmin DownVu transducer or a NMEA depth transducer with the Garmin echoMAP CHIRP 45cv.

If you have more than 1 sonar device installed onboard Quickdraw contours automatically selects the most capable sonar device for best results.

The echoMAP CHIRP 45cv features multiple depth range shading with its own colour which makes it easy to target depths quickly and efficiently.

The Garmin echoMAP CHIRP 45cv uses GPX Waypoints which enables you to transfer locational information utilising open standard format for waypoints (up to 5,000), tracks (50,000 points, 50 saved tracks) or frequently used routes (up to 100).
