Frequently Bought Together
A simple, affordable way to quickly find where the fish are hiding and then find your way back to the best spots!
Garmin's echoMAP 54dv Chartplotter/Sonar Combo makes it easy to add navigation and sonar to anything from your fishing kayak up to a 30' boat. Easy to buy. Easy to install. Easy to use. It doesn't get much easier than this!
5" Diagonal Display
It all starts with a 5" diagonal, high-contrast color display with automatic backlight adjustment so you don't have to fiddle with the brightness settings as you move from sunshine to shadow. You'll also find simple, intuitive pushbutton controls that are easier to navigate with gloved hands than touchscreens.
Tilt/Swivel Mount
It’s easy to keep your echoMAP safe and secure when you return from your adventures. The cords plug directly into the included tilt/swivel quick-disconnect mount so plugging and unplugging wires from the unit every time you install or remove it are a thing of the past.
Built-in GPS
The fast, responsive 5 Hz internal GPS/GLONASS refreshes your position and heading 5 times each second to make your movement on the screen more fluid. It also makes it easy to drop up to 5,000 accurate waypoints so you'll quickly find your way back to your secret hot spots. If you have waypoints, tracks or frequently used routes stored on another manufacturer’s GPS product—or on a Garmin handheld device—it’s easy to transfer those items to your new echoMAP via industry-standard GPX software formatting. GPX is an open standard format for GPS data exchange across platforms and applications.
Scanning Sonar
If you haven't experienced DownVü scanning before you are in for a treat! Imagine seeing a nearly photographic sonar view of structure, submerged objects and fish that pass up to 750' below your boat. With the echoMAP 54dv, traditional Garmin HD-ID™ sonar and DownVü™ scanning sonar are combined into one transducer. Included is sonar-recording capability that coordinates the timing of the sonar return with your boat's position and saves digital information for playback on a computer using free HomePort™ planning software. You can even share waypoints and routes with multiple devices. Plus, you get HD-ID support for Minn Kota and MotorGuide trolling motors with integrated transducers.
Transom Mount Transducer
This echoMAP 54dv includes a DownVü transom mount transducer with fast response temperature sensor. This single transducer combines 50/200kHz HD-ID sonar and 455/800kHz DownVü sonar for the ultimate in clear scanning.
Preloaded BlueChart® g2 Maps
You'll find preloaded maps that cover the entire coastal US and Bahamas—East Coast, West Coast, Gulf of Mexico and US side of the Great Lakes. Includes everything available on NOAA charts. In addition to the basic charts, tidal stations, currents, depth contours, IALA symbols and included fishing charts, BlueChart g2 offers smooth transitioning between zoom levels and more seamless continuity across chart boundaries. You can customize your screens with Safety Shading which allows you to contour shade for all depth contours shallower than what you determine is your safe depth. Designate up to 10 different depth ranges each with its own color to make it easier to view target depths at a glance. Fishing charts emphasize bathymetric contours with less visual clutter on the display. And there’s also a choice of standard 2-D direct overhead or 3-D “over-the-bow” map views for easier chart reading and orientation.
Map Upgrades
A single microSD™ card slot provides expandable memory for accessory map purchases such as LakeVü HD, LakeVü HD Ultra or BlueChart g2 Vision (all sold separately). LakeVü HD Ultra and BlueChart g2 Vision provide exclusive Garmin Auto Guidance that directs you right to your hot spots by instantly creating an on-screen path based on your boat’s specifications that you can follow to avoid shallow water and other charted obstructions.
Enhanced Auto Guidance
Just enter the location where you want to go and patented Garmin Auto Guidance technology instantly searches through relevant charts to create a safe virtual pathway on the display that helps you avoid low bridges, shallow water and other charted obstructions en route. Plus, you’re able to adjust the calculated Auto Guidance pathway by inserting “via” points at interim stops or landmarks along your desired route. You can easily review hazard points along your calculated path. And you can even engage your compatible Garmin autopilot to follow the Auto Guidance route, automatically. Calculate arrival times at any point on your route (great for timing arrivals to correspond with bridge openings and other time-critical events). You can also save your plotted Auto Guidance paths for future navigation by backing them up on an SD™ card with your BlueChart g2 Vision or Garmin LakeVü HD Ultra cartography.
Create Your Own HD Maps
Quickdraw Contours is an easy-to-use software feature that is pre-installed on your echoMAP. It instantly creates your very own personalized HD fishing maps with 1' contours. Tailor them to fit your needs. They are your maps. You own them. Keep the data to yourself or share it with Garmin or your friends. There’s no special surveying expertise required. You just fish while it creates maps. You don’t have to wait around or send your files away like other mapping software requires—your results appear instantly. Use them with any Garmin Panoptix™, HD-ID™, CHIRP-enabled or DownVü transducer or NMEA 2000-compatible depth transducer. Have more than one sonar device installed onboard? Quickdraw Contours automatically selects the most capable sonar device to provide the very best results for you!
