Garmin recently released the new GPSMAP 15×3 chartplotter, providing boaters with an ultrawide 15-inch touchscreen for a stunning high-resolution display, superior clarity, and a sleek design to optimize space in the helm.
With an edge-to-edge glass format that fits a wide range of dash configurations, users can enjoy the advantages of dual screens without needing two separate units, making it easier to display the data and applications they use most.
The 15-inch high-resolution touchscreen is 74 percent wider than a standard 9-inch chartplotter, improving viewing clarity.
The split-screen customization lets boaters view applications side by side and uses sidebar controls so users can easily customize and view the data they use most without switching screens.
Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonars offer vivid, high-contrast color palettes to help distinguish fish from structure. Optional Panoptix, LiveScope live sonar and CHIRP traditional sonar are also supported.
Built-in Garmin Navionics+ integrated mapping includes Auto Guidance+ technology and a one-year plan for downloadable daily updates. Users can also add Garmin Navionics Vision+ for premium features like high-resolution relief shading, satellite imagery and more.
When integrated with a Garmin Force trolling motor, anglers can create routes, patterns and tracks for the trolling motor to follow while they fish. From the chartplotter screen, they can also control speed, check battery life, and more.
Boaters can control all boat operations on one screen. Use Garmin’s EmpirBus digital switching to control lighting, power management, and more, or the OneHelm integrated solutions allow users to control third party systems and devices.
The GPSMAP 15×3 offers two different mounting options: a bail-mount option with inset knobs and a bracket to support the unique floating display installations, while a rear-mount option provides secure flush and flat-mount helm solutions.
The GPSMAP 15×3 has a suggested retail price of $4,499.99.
