The Garmin ECHOMAP UHD2 74sv is a chartplotter and fishfinder combo with a 7-inch touchscreen. The screen works with gloves and is readable in sunlight. It also has keyed assist and comes with the GT54UHD-TM transom-mount transducer.
The transducer provides traditional CHIRP sonar, ClearVü scanning sonar for detailed down views, and SideVü scanning sonar that covers up to 125 feet per side. Traditional sonar shows fish arches and bottom detail at speeds over 20 knots. Optional LiveScope can be added for real-time forward or perspective views.
Preloaded Garmin Navionics+ charts cover U.S. coastal waters, with depth shading, spot soundings, and tides and currents. Auto Guidance+ is available through the ActiveCaptain app. Multi-band GPS handles positioning. Built-in Wi-Fi connects to the ActiveCaptain app for Quickdraw Community contours, software updates and smart notifications. The unit can share waypoints, routes and sonar data with another UHD2 unit, and it can connect to Minn Kota Force trolling motors and to NMEA 2000 devices.
