MapSource BlueChart serves up the best offshore cartography around and works in seamless integration with a wide range of Garmin chartplotters. It even offers limited compatibility with handhelds such as the eTrex?Legend, eTrex Vista, GPS V and GPSMAP 76/76S.

Map areas are shaded like paper charts so you can identify intertidal zones, depth contours and more.

BlueChart CD-ROMs come in three flavors:
Americas (North and South America)
Atlantic (Europe and Africa) and
Pacific (Asia, Australia, and New Zealand).
