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.
