Serious cruisers, sailors and sail racers demand
serious equipment. The easy-to-use, easy-to-install GPSMAP 8616 chartplotter
delivers MFD performance in a combo-size package. It features a 16” full HD IPS
touchscreen display for wider viewing angles, superior clarity and sunlight
readability, even with polarized sunglasses. Multiple displays can be flat
mounted edge-to-edge to create a sleek glass helm look or can be mounted flush.
It also provides standard USB touch output for use as a touchscreen monitor for
Windows and Mac operating systems.
Build Your Marine System
NMEA 2000 networking and the Garmin Marine Network allow you to easily build
your full marine electronics suite — from radar and autopilots to cameras,
instruments and forward-looking sonar — controlled from your chartplotter and
shared across multiple screens. In addition, our exclusive OneHelm system
coordinates many third-party manufactured onboard marine products to bring full
control of systems — such as digital switching, lighting, stabilization and more
— conveniently to your chartplotter screen.
Full Connectivity
The GPSMAP 8616 chartplotter has a premium-performance processor that enables
fast map drawing, superior networking, video distribution and more. Built-in
Wi-Fi technology lets you pair with the free ActiveCaptain app for access to
OneChart, smart notifications2, Garmin Quickdraw community data and
more. You can also control video streaming from our GC 100 wireless camera and
VIRB action cameras. In addition, built-in ANT wireless technology connects you
directly to our quatix marine watch, gWind Wireless 2 transducer and wireless
remote controls.
SmartMode Station Controls
Networked sonar, radar, cameras, media and digital switching can be independent
or incorporated into SmartMode station controls. With SmartMode, everything is
designed to give you quick, one-touch access to the information you need to ease
high-stress situations such as docking.
The Best of Garmin with the Best of Navionics
For the most detailed, clear and concise charts and maps, GPSMAP 8616 includes
expandable memory for accessory map purchases such as BlueChart g3 and BlueChart
g3 Vision featuring Navionics data. The charts and maps also include our Auto
Guidance technology, which shows a suggested route to a destination1,
based on your boat’s specifications.
Sit Back and Take Control
You don’t have to stand for hours at the helm. The optional easy-to-use GRID 20
remote input device provides intuitive remote access and control of your entire
Garmin marine system. It features a 360-degree joystick with a rotary knob and
push-to-select button for easy chartplotter menu/setting navigation and fine
control, even in the worst conditions.
Special Sailing Features
To help you make informed decisions, the Garmin SailAssist feature provides
critical data displays and prerace guidance to help you gain a competitive edge.
Other sailing features include laylines, enhanced wind rose, heading and
course-over-ground lines, true wind data fields and tide/current/time slider.
Gauge displays provide need-to-know information at a glance, including true and
apparent wind angle, set and drift, true or apparent wind speed, horizontal or
vertical graphs and a data bar with customizable fields.
The Ultimate Connected Boating App
Download the ActiveCaptain app to your smartphone or tablet to manage your
marine experience from anywhere — from trip planning and prefishing to updating
software and purchasing maps.
