The portable

GPSMAP 96, are designed for a multi-purpose role. Add street mapping, and be guided street by street to a destination. Use on water with marine charts and standard boating GPS functions. The size also suits many outdoor activities. Move seamlessly from plane, to car, to boat, to hiking boots.
Aviation: The
GPSMAP 96C has full-featured GPS navigation with a Jeppesen database which includes airports, identifiers and services, runway and frequency information, NDBs, SUAs and much more. Graphic HSI steering cues with GPS-derived VNAV provide added orientation. An automatic logbook also calculates your flight time and automatically records departure and arrival locations. When used with Garmin's free logbook software - FlightBook - this feature makes light work of maintaining your logbook. Your flight information will be stored in the unit and can be downloaded to this exclusive Flightbook software at any time.
On the ground: Optional city street mapping will make your life easier every time you venture into town. The basemap shows highways, major roads, lakes, rivers, railroads and state and national borders to comfort level. It becomes really useful when you add City Navigator Australia, which provides automatic street by street directions, off-route recalculation, and audible tones to alert the driver of upcoming turns. Country mapping can be enhanced with Metroguide Australia. With either map set, you can locate and route to thousands of points of interest, including hotels, restaurants, service stations, ATMs and more.
On the water: For pilots who also like to captain a boat, the
GPSMAP 96C has a Marine mode. Using the base map showing a rough shoreline, or adding detailed MapSource BlueChart® marine charts, all the traditional boating functions will make your journey safer and more predictable. The
GPSMAP 96C is not only waterproof, but also floats!
The GPSMAP 96: One nav fits all. Whether on land, sea, or air, the GPSMAP 96C is the smart, versatile way to get there.
