Garmin HomePort MicroSD Card

Overview

• Marine trip-planning software (does not include map data)
• Allows you to manage waypoints, routes and tracks
• Allows user to measure distance and bearing on the charts

Before heading out on the open water, plan your voyage with HomePort marine trip-planning software that lets you plan and organise routes from the convenience of your computer.

Use your existing BlueChart preprogrammed card, or transfer the preloaded maps directly from your chartplotter to an SD card. Then simply plug the card into your computer's card reader to start planning your voyage.

Navigating waters with no visible landmarks or shallow shorelines can be a daunting task for even the most experienced navigator. With your existing BlueChart data together with HomePort on your computer, you'll have the ability to view map details such as underwater hazards and hidden obstacles and plan a route to avoid them.

HomePort also offers features such as depth profiles, distance and bearing measurements, and tidal predictions.

In addition to managing waypoints, routes and tracks, you can store information from past voyages right on your computer.

HomePort also will help you create point-to-point routes, determine fuel usage and estimate your travel time for each leg of your route saving you time and money.

It's easy to browse and view chart detail on your computer screen and mark waypoints and other points of interest. When finished, send the data to an SD card or proprietary Garmin datacard to load into your compatible Garmin chartplotter or sounder.

HomePort is compatible with BlueChart, BlueChart g2 and BlueChart g2 Vision navigation charts. Currently, it is only compatible with Windows operating systems.

The HomePort software does not include detailed mapping data.
