BlueChart g2 data is available in two formats:

Preloaded on your Garmin chartplotter—coverage includes the costal United States

and contains all the detail of traditional BlueChart and some of the previously listed

additional functions (

page ii

).

• Preprogrammed Garmin data card—coverage is expanded beyond the costal United

States and regions are available throughout the rest of North and South America as

well as Europe (Atlantic) and Asia (Pacific). Garmin BlueChart g2 preprogrammed

data cards contain additional data including highly detailed coastal roads and points of

interest such as restaurants, lodging, local attractions and more. Full-color aerial photos

of ports, marinas, bridges, and navigational landmarks are also included on many

BlueChart g2 preprogrammed data cards (see

page 2

for a visual comparison).

Note: Garmin BlueChart g2 preprogrammed data cards work only with

BlueChart g2 compatible Garmin units. Look for the BlueChart g2 compatible logo

on the product packaging.

Current owners of Garmin GPSMAP 276, GPSMAP 376, GPSMAP 3005C, GPSMAP 3006C,

and GPSMAP 3010C chartplotters can also use BlueChart g2 preprogrammed data cards after

loading a required software update.
