The Garmin ECHOMAP UHD2 53cv is a chartplotter with a 5-inch keyed display. It combines dual sonar with preloaded Garmin Navionics+ U.S. inland mapping. It is made for freshwater and saltwater fishing and navigation.
Sonar comes from Garmin CHIRP Traditional Sonar and ClearVü Scanning Sonar. ClearVü gives photo-like views of the bottom and suspended objects. CHIRP covers broader search areas and works in deep water. The GT20-TM transducer is included. Target separation is 70% better than with traditional sonar units.
Built-in Wi-Fi connects the unit to the ActiveCaptain app for map management, software updates and Garmin Quickdraw community access. Compatible ECHOMAP UHD2 units can share sonar data, waypoints and routes wirelessly. The housing is water resistant and has sealed connectors. The keypad sits on the right side of the unit.
