NOTE: You must already own a registered BlueChart CD ROM in order to use a BlueChart Region Unlock Certificate

MapSource BlueChart CD Rom's by Garmin are available for 3 different Zones: Americas, Atlantic, and Pacific. Each BlueChart CD ROM comes with an unlock certificate that will allow access to ONE region of your choice. To gain access to additional regions on the BlueChart CD ROM, you may purchase a BlueChart Region Unlock Certificate. Each BlueChart Region Unlock Certificate adds ONE new region of cartography.

Complementing Garmin's new line of handheld mapping units and marine chartplotters, BlueChart cartography is designed to provide interactive viewing of detailed nautical chart data. BlueChart provides navigators with innovative object oriented cartography. Descriptive details for features typically found on nautical charts can easily be viewed with a simple key press. Cursor movements over the chart provide descriptions for contour depth, chart number, navaid name, and much, much more. When displayed on a Garmin chartplotter, BlueChart offers you a paper chart-like appearance. This data will include shaded depth contours, inter-tidal zones, spot soundings, wrecks, navaids, port plans, restricted areas, cable areas, anchorages and more. Additionally, BlueChart includes chart numbers, name, scales, revision dates and Notice to Mariner dates. BlueChart offers detailed paper chart-like, vector cartography in large coverage areas so choosing your desired region is easy.
