Both the GPSMAP 525 and GPSMAP 525s feature crisp, sunlight readable VGA displays driven by high-speed processors. They offer exceptional detail, fast redraw rates, and the most realistic photo-enhanced cartography ever seen in their class of fixed-mount electronics. Options such as true 3D-view mapping, both above and below the waterline, plus available auto guidance safe-passage routings help simplify navigation. And an optional SD card slot makes it easy to plug in extra chart regions and features, as well as panoramic aerial photo reference.

In addition, the 525s model comes with a powerful built-in 1,000-watt RMS digital sonar - which can scan for fish, structure or other items of interest lurking as deep as 2,000 feet (610 meters). It's also CANet capable - so you can share the sonar picture with other plotter displays on your boat.
