Navigation & charts

Charts built for real passages

Layer coastal and inland detail on your Garmin chartplotter, adjust shading and perspective to match sea state and visibility, and zoom from harbour-scale pilotage to passage planning without losing context.

With Garmin Navionics+ you benefit from frequent chart updates—helping keep hazards, aids to navigation, and surveyed contours aligned with what you see outside the windscreen.

From crowded harbours to quiet inland lakes, consistent presentation across displays keeps your crew oriented and reduces guesswork at the helm.

Sonar & imaging

See what is below your hull

Purpose-built transducers send crisp sonar returns to your Garmin display so you can read bottom hardness, spot arches that signal feeding fish, and track thermoclines when pelagics stack by depth.

Tune gain, scroll speed, and frequency for the water you are in—whether you are sounding a new channel, locating bait schools offshore, or hugging structure where snapper hold tight to the contours.

When paired with compatible hardware, modern Garmin marine sonar helps you spend less time guessing what is under the boat and more time steering toward productive water.

Garmin chartplotters and fishfinders in New Zealand

Burnsco stocks a wide range of Garmin marine electronics for Kiwi boaties—from compact STRIKER units for trailer boats to GPSMAP and ECHOMAP Ultra multifunction displays for serious offshore and coastal fishing. Whether you need reliable charting for harbour pilotage, high-definition sonar for snapper and kingfish, or a connected helm with radar and VHF, Garmin builds chartplotters and fishfinders designed to perform in real NZ conditions.

Choosing the right Garmin chartplotter or fishfinder

Start with how you use your boat. Smaller vessels and kayaks often suit STRIKER or ECHOMAP UHD2 combos with built-in GPS and sonar. Larger boats benefit from GPSMAP or ECHOMAP Ultra displays with larger screens, networking, and support for premium transducers. Match screen size to your helm layout, and consider whether you want keyed controls, touchscreen, or a mix of both. Our team can help you compare models in the top products section or across marine categories.

Garmin Navionics+ charts for NZ waters

Many Garmin chartplotters include or support Garmin Navionics+ mapping with detail-rich coastal and inland charts, shallow-water shading, depth range shading, and frequent updates through the ActiveCaptain app. For even more detail, Garmin Navionics Vision+ adds high-resolution relief shading, satellite imagery, and advanced visualisation on compatible units. Burnsco also stocks standalone chart cards for New Zealand and the South Pacific.
