High tech throughout, even down to the touch of
a screen, this network charplotter with preloaded
maps comes from Garmin’s flagship lineup —
the GPSMAP 5000 series. Sleek and visually stunning,
the GPSMAP 5208 features an unprecedented touchscreen
interface that makes navigation and redesigned marine
network operation as easy as pointing your finger.
Enjoy a super-bright
touchscreen with simplified user interface
With no buttons to push, you can see and select
the data you want on the 8.4” diagonal VGA
touchscreen display. Interface is further simplified
with fewer operational steps to navigate. The touchscreen
display complements a new slim-line design that
gives all 5000 series units a “flat panel”
look when flush mounted.
See detail-rich imagery
like never before
The GPSMAP 5208 features worldwide satellite imagery
and comes preloaded with BlueChart® g2 maps
of the coastal United States – including Alaska,
Hawaii and the Bahamas. The 5208 also offers the
optional BlueChart® g2 Vision SD data card,
which provides high-resolution aerial reference
photos for help navigating tricky harbors and channels
— or locating spots like area marinas, fuel
stops or restaurants. The g2 Vision plug-in data
card also allows the GPSMAP 5208 to graphically
depict a true 3D “mariner’s eye”
topside view or “fish eye” underwater
navigation perspective.
Simplify navigation with
Auto Guidance
Optional g2 Vision auto guidance technology will
help simplify your navigation. Auto Guidance searches
all the chart features to suggest the best known
charted route for navigation. It’s like having
a knowledgeable guide to local hazards and waterways
always on deck.
Benefit from Marine Network
Capabilities
The 5000 series has all of the same networking
capabilities of other multifunction displays within
the proprietary Garmin Marine Network™, a
system that combines GPS, radar, sonar, XM WX Satellite
Weather, and other data for unparalleled situational
awareness.
