Overview
The Garmin 010-11971-00 is a snap-on protective cover for Garmin GPSMAP 5x7 Series and echoMAP 50s Series fixed-mount units. It covers the front of the display when the unit is not in use, helping keep spray, sun, and dockside grime off the screen and front controls.
It fits GPSMAP 527, 527xs, 547, and 547xs, as well as echoMAP 50s and echoMAP 50dv.
Key features
- Front protective cover for compatible Garmin GPSMAP 5x7 and echoMAP 50s series displays
- Compatible models include GPSMAP 527, 527xs, 547, 547xs, echoMAP 50s, and echoMAP 50dv
- Helps protect the display face from splash, sun exposure, and scuffs while the unit is not in use
- Snaps on and off without tools, so it is easy to cover the unit at the dock or on the trailer
- Useful replacement when an original cover is lost, cracked, or no longer stays seated
Compatibility and fit
This cover is shaped for the face of the compatible units listed above. It is meant as a storage and protection cover and does not replace a mount, bracket, or sealing gasket.
If your unit model name is similar but not an exact match, confirm the model number on the display label before ordering since covers are model-specific.
Installation and use
Press the cover onto the front of the unit until it sits evenly around the edges. Remove it before powering up or operating the chartplotter.
After a salty day, rinse the cover and the area around the display with fresh water and let everything dry before snapping the cover back on, so grit is less likely to be trapped against the screen.
Use on board
This is a good match for open-console boats, sailboats, and pilothouses where the display sits exposed between trips, and for trailering or seasonal storage where the screen can get bumped or coated in road dust.
Maintenance and care
Wash with mild soap and water as needed. Avoid harsh cleaners that can cloud the surface or leave residue where the cover contacts the display.
Shipping
We ship worldwide from the United States. Rates are calculated at checkout based on destination and package weight. Some items include free shipping, which will show automatically. Not every product is eligible for international shipping; checkout will confirm eligibility. We do not ship to PO Boxes except through USPS, and not all packages qualify.
Processing and dispatch
Most orders are verified, packed, and handed to the carrier within 1 to 2 business days. Some products may need extra handling time or ship directly from the manufacturer. For certain international orders, inventory transfers between warehouses may add time. If any delay is expected, we will let you know the dispatch date.
Delivery and tracking
Deliveries are handled by trusted carriers such as USPS, UPS, FedEx, and DHL. Estimated arrival times appear at checkout and depend on your location and the service you choose. These are estimates and can be affected by customs or carrier disruptions. A shipping confirmation with a tracking link is emailed when your order ships, and tracking may take up to 24 hours to update. You can also view tracking in your account.
Duties, taxes, and support
International customers are responsible for any customs duties, taxes, and fees charged by the destination country. If these charges are refused and a shipment returns to us, the carrier’s return cost and any re-entry customs fees will be deducted from the refund. If your order is late or you need help, contact cs@qualityboatparts.com and we will assist you.
Quality Boat Parts is a reseller. Many items include a manufacturer’s warranty, and all warranty service is handled directly by the manufacturer. We do not manage or administer warranty claims on behalf of customers.
Warranty terms, coverage, and duration are set by each manufacturer. Issues involving defects, repairs, or replacements must be addressed with the manufacturer’s support team. When available, the warranty period is listed on the product page. If it is not shown, contact us or the manufacturer for details before purchasing.
To start a claim, the customer must contact the manufacturer and follow their process. Keep your proof of purchase and original packaging, and register the product if the manufacturer requires it, as these are often needed for warranty service.
