Features
The Garmin GPSMAP 640 will make your life easier on both the water and the road. It’spreloaded with BlueChart g2 data and City Navigator North American road maps, so
you’ll always know where you’re headed. Plus, the GPSMAP 640 gives you a
high-sensitivity GPS receiver with a vivid high-resolution touchscreen display. In
marine mode, your device can receive XM and WX satellite weather data, and CM
NavTraffic data makes automotive mode a breeze with the optional GXM 40 antenna and
an XM subscription.
When you use the marine mount, you get easy access to your marine data. And, when you
use the optional automotive mount and City Navigator NT for North America map data,
your GPSMAP 620 automatically shifts to automotive mode. The GPSMAP 640 has a vivid
5.2-inch WNGA touchscreen display and an easy-to-use interface. It’s also preloaded
with a worldwide satellite basemap so you’ll see vivid space images of all the
surface features around you.
When you’re on your boat, the GPSMAP 640 gives you both Mariner’s and Fish eye view,
which lets you see what’s going on both above and below the waterline. The Auto
Guidance feature searches chart data to offer you the best passage through BlueChart
g2 Vision data. The GPSMAP 640 is NMEA-0183 compliant, so you can add it to an
existing marine network. Plus, you’ll always be on point with access to fishing
charts, tide and current data, marine services coastal roads and more with the
BlueChart g2 Vision data. And, the worldwide basemap comes standard on your GPSMAP
640.
When you’re back in your car, GPSMAP 640’s automotive mode tells you where to go with
turn-by-turn directions. And, route planning is easy, so you’ll have no problem
planning your trip. Use your GPSMAP 640 to create custom points of interest and set
up proximity alerts so you know what’s ahead before you get there.

This is an amazing piece of equipment. Operation is completely intuitive and very simple. I will use it in my small skiff with the provided lion battery and not have to have any wires to plug in. Completely portable with huge screen that can be read in the sunlight.

So far so good, the only bad was not bright enought under the sun, I have the Fish finder 300C side by side and it was no problem under the sun
