Garmin BlueChart g2 charts were superceded on 27th February 2019 by a new Garmin BlueChart named g3. All Garmin BlueCharts purchased from ActiveGPS.co.uk on or after this date feature the new Garmin BlueChart g3 or g3 Vision format.
Garmin BlueChart g2 HD charts provide rich, seamless marine charting on compatible Garmin marine and handheld products. The g2 version of Garmin's marine charting provides a number of features including: marine cartography, tidal stations, currents, depth contours, IALA symbols, 3-D map perspective "over the bow" fishing charts and more.
G2 charts were available in one single size of regular. We suggest buying the chart(s) that provide the coverage for your sailing, fishing, yachting needs.
Garmin g2 marine charts were replaced by Garmin g3 version in February 2019. Just like their predecessor, g2 HD came in one single size: Regular. Click below to discover the range of charts available to buy from ActiveGPS.
