Using Mariner’s Eye 3D
A BlueChart g2 Vision SD card offers Mariner’s Eye 3D that provides a
detailed three-dimensional view from above and behind the boat (according
to your course), and provides a visual navigation aid. This view is helpful
when navigating tricky shoals, reefs, bridges, or channels, and is beneficial
when trying to identify entry routes and exit routes in unfamiliar harbors or
anchorages.
Press the Range (+) key to move the view closer to your boat and lower to
the water. Press the Range (-) key to move the view away from the boat.
The scale ( ) temporarily appears at the bottom of the screen.
To view details about navaids such as beacons, lights, and
obstructions:
1. Use the Rocker to point to the navaid. When the cursor is over the navaid,
the navaid is highlighted.
2. Press SELECT to view details about the navaid.
