“Whether used as a backup solution for onboard electronics or a
dedicated navigation device, the GPSMAP 79 series provides a number
of key tools every mariner should have on hand when leaving shore,”
said Dan Bartel, Garmin vice president of global consumer sales.
“Along with a fresh new design, easy-to-interpret mapping and
modern features, the GPSMAP 79 Series offers greater peace of mind
and more efficient on-water navigation as mariners search for
promising fishing spots or set out on a weekend cruise.”
Enhanced navigation
The GPSMAP 79 series is available in two models – the GPSMAP
79s with a built-in worldwide basemap and support for
downloadable marine charts, and the GPSMAP 79sc which comes
standard with built-in BlueChart g3 cartography. In addition to a
3-axis tilt-compensated compass, GPSMAP 79 marine handhelds use
reliable GNSS with support for multiple constellations which allows
boaters to access data across the world.
Crisp display
No matter the conditions, the GPSMAP 79 series prevents fogging
and improves contrast of on-screen mapping thanks to a larger,
optically bonded display with 2.5-times higher resolution than its
previous range. Specially crafted for life on the water, the new,
transflective color display with a scratch-resistant glass lens
allows for sunlight-readable navigation to enhance clarity and
visibility in outdoor environments.
Marinized design
The GPSMAP 79 series provides users with up to 19 hours of
battery life while using GPS, and – thanks to its practical
floating design and water resistance2 – can continue to perform in
harsh marine environments. For capturing even more adventures on
the lake or at sea, the GPSMAP 79 series offers 8GB of memory for
storage of up to 10,000 waypoints and 250 routes.
The GPSMAP 79s and GPSMAP 79sc marine handhelds are available
now with suggested retail prices of $299.99 and $349.99,
respectively. To learn more about the GPSMAP 79 series and Garmin’s
