Garmin GPSMAP 276C

Bottom of Page

The GPSMAP 276C is an all-in-one, versatile, colour 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, colour 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.

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 Pacific Autoroute basemap features interstates and major highways. With an optional automotive kit and MapSource City Navigator Australia software, drivers can receive voice-prompted turn-by-turn directions to addresses and points of interest throughout Australia.

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 240 Volt AC plugpack.
