(according to your course), and provides a visual navigation aid.
• —displays two different zoom levels of the
Navigation chart at the same time.
• —provides a view of the chart with enhanced bottom
contours and without navigational data. This chart works well for offshore
deep-sea shing.

sea oor according to the information on the chart.

three-dimensional navigation aid. The BlueChart g2 Vision Mariner’s Eye

Mariner’s Eye 3D charts and Fish Eye 3D charts are available only if you
use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card.
