Does the GPSMAP 8610xsv include a sonar module?

No. It supports CHIRP, ClearVü and SideVü, but you need a compatible Garmin sonar module or transducer bundle to use them.

Can it share charts and sonar with another display?

Yes. Built-in Ethernet and Wi-Fi let it share charts, sonar and radar with other compatible Garmin units on the same network.

Yes. The IPS panel has an anti-glare finish and owners report it stays readable in bright sun.

It carries IPX6 and IPX7 ratings, so it handles spray and brief immersion, which suits open cockpits.

The 8610xsv gives a larger screen and the same networking and sonar support, at a higher cost and with a bigger mounting footprint.
