BlueChart or LakeVu Mapping Showing No Detail on My Outdoor Handheld

If you are not seeing detailed information with your BlueChart® or LakeVü ™ mapping, you may need to adjust your Marine Chart Mode. For information on changing your Marine Chart Mode, see the Owner's Manual for your Garmin. The Marine Chart Mode setting can be found under Setup and then Marine on your handheld.

Marine Chart Mode Options

  • Off: The default setting and should be used if you are using other mapping outside of marine mapping

    Off Example
