Affordable
Marine Networking
The economical
GPSMAP 3005C will introduce a new segment of boaters to the Garmin Marine
Network. With its lower price and smaller footprint, this unit is ideal for
serious bass or walleye anglers, or for pleasure boaters who want to make sure
they have cutting-edge information at their fingertips. The GPSMAP 3005C also
works well as a secondary unit for a boat already rigged with the Marine
Network.
The waterproof
GPSMAP 3005C features a five-inch (diagonal) sunlight-readable, 256-color, 640 x
480-pixel VGA display. Like other multifunction displays (MFDs) within the
Garmin Marine Network, the GPSMAP 3005C is compatible with BlueChart®,
MapSource® Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots®, and Minnesota Lakemaster®
marine cartography. The GPSMAP 3005C communicates with the rest of the network
via a 100-megabit Garmin proprietary network. Once it is connected, the 3005C
automatically detects any and all peripherals, automatically sharing information
like waypoints, routes, tracks, and cartography.
The GPSMAP 3005C
accepts XM WX Satellite Weather data service from the GDL 30 and GDL 30A
weather data receiver (sold separately). When installed, the GPSMAP 3005C can
display more than 15 different types of graphical weather informationincluding
animated NEXRAD weather radar and forecasts, pressure, visibility,
precipitation, wind data, wave data, and sea surface temperaturesdirectly onto
the chartplotter display. With the GDL 30A, the unit also provides XM Satellite
Radio service.
For boaters
wanting dual-frequency sonar capabilities, the GPSMAP 3005C can be connected to
Garmins GSD 20 black box sounder, which offers 4,000 watts of peak-to-peak
power (500 watts RMS).
To offer the
greatest value in a compact size, the GPSMAP 3005C differs from the larger
GPSMAP 3006C and GPSMAP 3010C in the following ways:
-
3 serial ports
(1 dedicated to the GPS 17, 2 configurable), compared to 4 for the GPSMAP
3006C and GPSMAP 3010C
-
Single,
front-loading card slot vs 2 slots on the GPSMAP 3006C and GPSMAP 3010C
