 Description
The GPSMAP 276C is an all-in-one, versatile,
color chartplotter and automobile navigator — perfect for land or water.
This portable GPS navigator features a 256-color TFT display that's easy to
read in bright sun along with a built-in basemap and auto routing to provide
you with turn-by-turn directions to the marina for a day of boating.
On water, the GPSMAP 276C is a dependable,
color chartplotter with a built-in Autoroute basemap enhanced by Garmin's
marine cartography. It accepts pre-programmed or user programmed data cards
with MapSource®
BlueChart® for offshore detail or Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot
Spots® for detail of inland lakes.
In addition, the GPSMAP 276C supports
external NMEA sources for water depth, water temperature, and water speed
through two serial interfaces. The unit also features a new Course Deviation
Indicator (CDI) — an advanced navigation tool commonly found on aircraft,
but equally practical in the marine environment. The CDI quickly indicates
if a boat has veered off course.
On land, the GPSMAP 276C’s Americas or
European Autoroute basemap features interstates and major highways. With an
optional automotive kit that includes
MapSource City Select® software, data card, friction mount, and 12-volt
power adapter with speaker, drivers can receive voice-prompted turn-by-turn
directions to addresses and points of interest throughout the United States
and Canada or Europe.
For map transfer or software updates, the
GPSMAP 276C features a fast USB-PC interface. The unit is also powered by a
rechargeable lithium-ion battery pack, or a standard 110-volt AC plug.
