It integrates Garmin and Navionics® data for clear and precise detail. This digital chart is supplied on a microSD™/SD™ card for easy compatibility with Garmin devices.

Detailed Geographic Coverage

This chart includes the entire Adriatic Sea, extending south to Syracuse in Sicily and the Gulf of Arcadia in Greece. It also provides detailed coverage of Italian lakes such as Lake Maggiore, Lake Iseo, and Lake Garda, as well as the Po River. The chart covers the Adriatic coasts of Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Albania, the west coast of Greece, eastern Sicily, the Strait of Messina, and the Dalmatian coast. Installation requires 1.21 GB of space on a microSD™/SD™ card, with up to an additional 500 MB potentially needed for software updates.

Advanced Navigation Features

The Garmin BlueChart® g3 HXEU014R includes Auto Guidance technology, which calculates a suggested route based on desired depth and overhead clearance. The depth shading mode displays up to 10 high-resolution depth ranges, facilitating quick visualization of target depths. One-foot (approximately 30 cm) bathymetric contours provide a detailed representation of the seabed structure, optimizing navigation and fishing. Shallow-water shading allows setting a depth to visually highlight areas to avoid. NOAA raster chart downloads are available free via the ActiveCaptain® app, offering paper-style chart views of surveyed areas with labeled points of interest and corresponding longitude/latitude coordinates. Finally, various points of interest such as marinas, boat ramps, campsites, major roads, and potential hazards are displayed on the chart.

Expert opinion

« Garmin BlueChart g3 Italy/Adriatic Chartplotter: Navionics integration for navigation »

The Garmin BlueChart® g3 HXEU014R digital chartplotter represents an essential marine navigation solution for coastal and lacustrine areas covering Italy and the Adriatic Sea. The integration of Garmin and Navionics® data is a major asset, providing a wealth of cartographic information that exceeds that of basic products. This combination enables better delineation of seabeds, channels, and port infrastructures, which is crucial for navigation safety and efficiency.

For the user, features such as Auto Guidance significantly simplify route planning by offering optimized routes based on draft and air clearance. Anglers will particularly appreciate the 1-foot bathymetric contours, which provide an accurate representation of underwater topography, making it easier to locate structures suitable for fishing. Shallow water and depth contour shading are also fundamental for safety, enabling quick identification of hazardous areas or target depths. Installation is straightforward, consisting of inserting the microSD™/SD™ card into a compatible Garmin device. Managing updates via the ActiveCaptain® app is a smooth process, although users with bandwidth constraints should account for the size of download files.
