Compatibility and fit
This product is for Garmin chartplotters that support BlueChart g3 and BlueChart g3 Vision cartography. Make sure your unit has an available card slot or network chart card reader and that it supports the HXUS027R/VUS027R region format before purchase.
Some newer Garmin units use the Garmin Navionics+ chart format instead of BlueChart g3. If your system is set up for Navionics+ only, this chart will not load.
Installation and setup
For SD card versions, insert the microSD card (or the included SD adapter) into the chartplotter and keep the card in place while using the chart. For download versions, use Garmin Express to install the chart to a microSD/SD card, then insert that card into the chartplotter.
Plan on one chart per card. On systems with a Garmin marine network, a single mapping card can be viewed on compatible chartplotters on that network when the system supports chart sharing.
On-the-water use
This coverage is a good match for inter-island cruising in Hawaii, longer Pacific passages that touch Guam or the Northern Marianas, and fishing where bottom detail matters. Depth range shading and relief shading help you pick out structure and stay aware of shoaling when you are running close to reefs and approaches.
Auto Guidance is a planning aid and does not replace local knowledge, updated information, and safe navigation practices.
