Garmin GPSMAP 298 Sounder DISCONTINUED

The GPSMap 298C Sounder combines vivid colour chartplotting with a dual-frequency sounder in one multipurpose unit. The 298C Sounder is similar in styling and function to the GPSMAP 292C,and features an enhanced worldwide basemap that depicts shorelines, roads and surface features in richer detaiis and is also compatible with the latest BlueChart® G2 series marine cartography. The unit's 5-inch display offers split-screen capability, so you can view both map and sounder information simultaneously. And with 500 watts of power (RMS)-plus Garmin's exclusive See-Thru® fish targeting technology-the built-in 50/200 kHz sonar paints a clear and accurate picture of everything worth watching under your boat.

GPSMAP 298C is enabled with Garmin's new CANetT-a one-megabit Controller Area Network that allows users to connect two chartplotters and a GSD 21 or GSD 22 (Garmin's new black-box sonar devices).
