This offshore mariner’s chartplotter flush-mounts easily in your
boat and sports preloaded BlueChart g2 maps for the coast of the
U.S. and Bahamas. The GPSMAP 540 also features a 5” QVGA display
and simple, straightforward buttons and menus. You can add the
optional BlueChart g2 Vision SD card for even more enhanced
features.
Navigate the High Seas
The 540 has preloaded detailed maps cover all U.S. coastal
areas and the Bahamas. For other areas, the 540 has a worldwide
basemap with satellite images in place of more traditional maps.
The SD card slot makes it easy to add additional maps without
connecting to a computer. And with just a few buttons and a
simple, intuitive interface, the 540 makes navigating your way
through the water easy.
Add Sonar and Weather
The sounder version, GPSMAP 540s, comes with a powerful dual
frequency or dual beam transducer that clearly paints depth
contours, fish targets and structure whether you’re fishing in
freshwater or off the coast. It’s also CANet™ compatible, so you
can share sounder data with another chartplotter on your boat.
For continuously-updated weather information, you can add the
optional GXM 31 antenna to receive XM satellite weather,
including NEXRAD radar, and hundreds of XM radio stations right
on your chartplotter.
