Depth Shading

: Specifies an upper and lower depth to shade 

between.

Shallow Shading

: Sets the shades from the shoreline to the 

specified depth.

Spot Depths

: Turns on spot soundings and sets a dangerous 

depth. Spot depths that are equal to or more shallow than the 

dangerous depth are indicated by red text.

Fishing Contours

: Sets the zoom level for a detailed view of 

bottom contours and depth soundings and simplifies map 

presentation for optimal use while fishing.

Relief Shading

: Shows the gradient of the bottom with shading. 

This feature is available only with some premium maps.

Sonar Imagery

: Shows sonar imagery to help show the density 

of the bottom. This feature is available only with some 

premium maps.

Lake Level

: Sets the present water level of the lake. This 

feature is available only with some premium maps.

Depth Range Shading

You can set color ranges on your map to show the water depths 

where your target fish are currently biting. You can set deeper 

ranges to monitor how quickly the bottom depth changes within 

a specific depth range. You can create up to ten depth ranges. 

For inland fishing, a maximum of five depth ranges can help 

reduce map clutter. The depth ranges apply to all charts and all 

bodies of water.
Some Garmin LakeVü

 and premium supplemental charts have 

multiple depth range shading by default.

Red

From 0 to 1.5 m (from 0 to 5 ft.)

Orange

From 1.5 to 3 m (from 5 to 10 ft.)

Yellow

From 3 to 4.5 m (from 10 to 15 ft.)

Green

From 4.5 to 7.6 m (from 15 to 25 ft.)

Supported Maps

To help you have a safe and enjoyable time on the water, 

Garmin devices only support official maps produced by Garmin 

or an approved third party producer.
You can purchase maps from Garmin. If you purchase maps 

from a seller other than Garmin, investigate the seller before 

purchasing. Be extra cautious with online sellers. If you have 

purchased an unsupported map, return it to the seller.

Garmin Quickdraw Contours Mapping

 WARNING

The Garmin Quickdraw Contours mapping feature allows users 

to generate maps. Garmin makes no representations about the 

accuracy, reliability, completeness or timeliness of the maps 

generated by third parties. Any use or reliance on the maps 

generated by third parties is at your own risk.

The Garmin Quickdraw Contours mapping feature allows you to 

instantly create maps with contours and depth labels for any 

body of water.
When Garmin Quickdraw Contours records data, a colored 

circle surrounds the vessel icon. This circle represents the 

approximate area of the map that is scanned by each pass.

A green circle indicates good depth and GPS position, and a 

speed under 16 km/h (10 mph). A yellow circle indicates good 

depth and GPS position, and a speed between 16 and 32 km/h 

(10 and 20 mph). A red circle indicates poor depth or GPS 

position, and a speed above 32 km/h (20 mph).
You can view Garmin Quickdraw Contours in a combination 

screen or as a single view on the map.
The amount of saved data depends on the size of your memory 

card, your sonar source, and the speed of your boat as you 

record data. You can record longer when you use a single-beam 

sonar. It is estimated that you might be able to record about 

1,500 hours of data onto a 2 GB memory card.
When you record data on a memory card in your chartplotter, 

the new data is added to your existing Garmin Quickdraw 

Contours map, and is saved on the memory card. When you 

insert a new memory card, the existing data does not transfer 

onto the new card.
