Advanced Map Options
Customize your view
Change the way you view Navionics charts and focus on the details that matter most to you (see video).
What you can do
Highlight shallow areas
Whether you want to target shallow areas for sight fishing or avoid damaging your prop, recognize them at a glance by shading up to your preferred depth.
Adjust contour density
Sometimes less is more. Very steep drop-offs can result in overlapping contour lines. Now you can see more clearly by lowering the density level for SonarChart™.
Select a fishing range
When you know the fish are suspended over certain depths, highlight the range so you can quickly identify more places to check out.

The Navionics subscription
A one-year subscription to daily updates and advanced features is included when you purchase any new product.
Check if your GPS plotter model is compatible with Navionics advanced features and make sure it is running the latest software.
Subscription expired?
After one year, you can renew your subscription at a discounted price. If you don’t, you can still use previously downloaded maps, but advanced features or download updates require an active subscription.
