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 memory available in 

the device, 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 the device.
