Garmin BlueChart Electronic Chart, Amazon River Inland Maps

Overview

The Garmin South America, Amazon River Inland Maps is an electronic chart for compatible Garmin chartplotters, covering the Amazon River from Benjamin Constant, Brazil to the Atlantic Ocean, plus sections of the Madeira River to Porto Velho and portions of the Tapajos and Para Rivers.

Across the range you get depth range shading for up to 10 depth ranges and chart detail with contours that can be as fine as 1 foot, which helps when you are working a specific edge or picking a safe line in shallow water.

The main choice is between BlueChart g3 (HXSA009R) and BlueChart g3 Vision (VSA009R). Both include Auto Guidance route suggestions and the core navigation layers; the Vision version adds photo and 3D style layers such as aerial photography, satellite imagery overlays, and MarinerEye and FishEye views where available.

Key features

• Coverage for the Amazon River system: Benjamin Constant to the Atlantic, the Madeira River to Porto Velho, and portions of the Tapajos and Para Rivers
• Two chart content levels: BlueChart g3 (HXSA009R) or BlueChart g3 Vision (VSA009R)
• Auto Guidance route suggestions based on your boat settings, helping with trip planning and obstacle awareness
• Depth range shading for up to 10 depth ranges and detailed contours that can be as fine as 1 foot
• Shallow water shading at a user-defined depth to make problem areas stand out at a glance
• Delivery options: preprogrammed microSD/SD card or a downloadable version installed to a microSD/SD card using Garmin Express

Variants

This chart is offered in multiple configurations so you can match the chart content level and the way you want to load it onto your system.

What changes between variants is the BlueChart version (g3 Vision VSA009R or standard g3 HXSA009R) and whether you receive a preprogrammed card or a download you install to a microSD/SD card.

• 010-C1066-00: BlueChart g3 Vision (VSA009R), SD Card. This is the plug-in option for chartplotters with a microSD/SD slot.
• 010-D1146-00: BlueChart g3 Vision (VSA009R), Download. This version is installed to a microSD/SD card through Garmin Express for use in a registered compatible chartplotter.
• 010-C1066-20: BlueChart g3 (HXSA009R), SD Card. This is the core chart package without the extra Vision photo and 3D layers.
• 010-D1145-00: BlueChart g3 (HXSA009R), Download. This version is installed to a microSD/SD card through Garmin Express for use in a registered compatible chartplotter.

Compatibility and fit

This cartography is for Garmin chartplotters that support BlueChart g3 or BlueChart g3 Vision and have a microSD/SD card slot. If you are using a download variant, plan on a computer with Garmin Express and a microSD/SD card to load the chart.

Auto Guidance uses the boat information you enter in the chartplotter. For routes that make sense on the water, confirm your draft and any clearance limits in your setup, then treat the suggested path as a planning aid rather than a substitute for local knowledge and real-time conditions.

Installation and updates

For SD card variants, insert the card into the chartplotter and select the chart from your chart menu. For download variants, Garmin Express installs the purchased chart to a microSD/SD card; only one chart is installed per card, so keep a dedicated card for this region.

If your boat sees heavy vibration or frequent card swaps, label the card and store it in a dry case when it is not in the plotter. That helps keep contacts clean and avoids small read errors caused by moisture and grime.

Use cases on board

This chart is a good match for skippers running inland passages on the Amazon and connected rivers, whether you are moving between towns, doing long river legs, or planning fishing runs that depend on bottom detail and consistent depth presentation.
