Garmin BlueChart Southeast Caribbean Coastal Chart, Up to 1 ft Contours

Overview

The Garmin BlueChart g3 Vision HD is the VUS030R Southeast Caribbean chart region for compatible Garmin chartplotters that read mapping from a microSD/SD card.

Coverage runs from Haiti down to Trinidad & Tobago, including Puerto Rico and the Lesser Antilles. It also includes the Colombian and Venezuelan coasts from Barranquilla, Colombia to the mouth of the Orinoco River, including Lake Maracaibo and the Gulf of Paria.

Across this region you get navigation aids, depth contours, tides and currents, and detail for ports and marinas. BlueChart g3 and BlueChart g3 Vision support Auto Guidance route planning (planning tool only), depth range shading for up to 10 depth ranges, shallow-water shading at a user-set depth, and chart detail with up to 1-foot contours. The g3 Vision option adds extra visual layers such as relief shading, satellite imagery overlays, 3D views, and aerial photos.

Variants

This chart region is offered in multiple configurations that pair the chart level (BlueChart g3 Vision or BlueChart g3) with the delivery method (SD card or download).

BlueChart g3 Vision uses the VUS030R region code and includes the added visual layers associated with the Vision tier. BlueChart g3 uses the HXUS030R region code and focuses on the core navigation and fishing chart layers for the same coverage area.

Compatibility and fit

Confirm your display supports BlueChart g3 or BlueChart g3 Vision mapping and has a microSD/SD card slot. Chart compatibility can vary by chartplotter generation, and some older units have limits on chart size and supported features.

If your boat has multiple Garmin displays on a Garmin Marine Network, charts can be viewed across compatible networked displays from the device holding the mapping card. Download versions are tied to the specific chartplotter selected during the install process.

Installation and setup

For the SD card versions, insert the microSD/SD card into the chartplotter and leave it installed while you are using the chart data. For the download versions, use Garmin Express on a computer to install the chart to a microSD/SD card for your registered chartplotter, then insert that card into the unit.

Only one chart can be installed to a single microSD/SD card. When preparing a card for a download install or chart update, use a blank card because the process can erase and reformat the card.

Use cases on board

This region makes sense for boats cruising between Puerto Rico and the Lesser Antilles, running south toward Trinidad & Tobago, or working the Colombian and Venezuelan coastline. It is also a practical pick for crews that want port and marina detail for arrivals and departures across a wide spread of islands.
