This chartplotter features the same menu-driven touchscreen found on its 5000 series counterparts. Preloaded BlueChart g2 maps of the U.S. coast and a whopping 15" screen make navigation as easy as pointing your finger. By connecting to the Garmin Marine Network, you can add GPS, sonar, radar and weather. And for even more advanced features, you can add the optional BlueChart g2 Vision card.

The GPSMAP 5215 features highly-detailed BlueChart g2 marine cartography of the coastal United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and the Bahamas. Just add a new GPS 17x receiver for chartplotting capabilities! For other areas, the 5215 has a worldwide basemap with high-quality satellite images in place of more traditional maps. With the SD card slot, you can add additional maps without having to connect to a computer.
The 5215's huge XGA screen displays graphics with crisp, video-quality resolution. To keep tabs on your engine room or other area of your boat, you can also connect a live video feed with the 5215's video input/output options.
Connect to the Garmin Marine Network
The 5215 connects easily to the high-speed Garmin Marine Network, so you can interface with additional MFDs and add remote sensors. Once connected, you can share information between the 5215 and other chartplotters on your boat. You can also add high-powered radar, sonar, and XM satellite weather and radio to your system.
