Garmin ECHOMAP™ UHD2 74sv

Explore the coasts and find more fish

Garmin's ECHOMAP UHD2 74sv chartplotter offers included maps of the U.S. coastline. It communicates easily with other devices (including your phone) and allows daily chart updates to its maps. Multi-band GPS assures position accuracy wherever you drop your line, and its 7" display gives you a great view so you can hone in on those fish.

Available with or without a sonar transducer

The ECHOMAP UHD2 74sv features built-in traditional CHIRP sonar capability, along with Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonars, so it'll be ready when used with a compatible Garmin transducer, like the GT54UHD-TM. Vivid color palettes allow you to distinguish between fish and underwater structures easily.

Garmin's GT54UHD-TM transducer gives you remarkably clear, detailed images up to 200 feet below and 500 feet around the boat. You'll see fish, plants, and  structures, and you'll even be able to tell the difference between big fish and little fish. The transducer delivers Ultra High-Definition ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonar images to the chartplotter, and it also works with high wide CHIRP traditional sonar. If you purchase the UHD2 74sv package including the transducer, it also includes transom and trolling motor mounts for an easier installation.

Garmin's ActiveCaptain® app adds so much more

Garmin's free ActiveCaptain app helps you get a lot out of your ECHOMAP. Your chartplotter purchase gives you a free 1-year subscription to Garmin Navionics+™ daily chart updates, which keep you current on aquatic data nearby. You can purchase additional maps through the app, and take advantage of Garmin's Auto Guidance+ technology, which quickly calculates the best route between your boat and your destination that won't get you hung up on obstacles, shallow waterways, overhead impediments, or sharp turns. The app also features Garmin's OneChart™ feature, trip planning, software updates, smart notifications, and more.

If you have another compatible ECHOMAP UHD2 chartplotter on your boat, you can wirelessly share information — such as sonar, waypoints, and routes — with them.

Preloaded U.S. coastal maps

The ECHOMAP UHD2 74sv is preloaded with Garmin Navionics+ U.S. coastal maps, offering detailed nautical charts and up to 1-foot contours for coastlines from Maine to Florida, the Gulf of Mexico, along the west coast, and beyond. You can add more maps via the ECHOMAP's microSD™ card slot or purchase through the ActiveCaptain app.

7" high-contrast color display

Ultra-fast processing refreshes your position and heading 5 times per second, so onscreen movement looks fluid on the 7" high-contrast color display. You'll be able to see the display in any lighting conditions, thanks to an auto-adjusting backlight. You can also drop up to 5,000 waypoints and find your way back to your favorite fishing spot.

Make your own maps

The ECHOMAP UHD2 74sv includes preloaded Quickdraw Contours software that lets you create your own HD maps with 1-foot contours. You'll own the maps, so you can keep the data to yourself or share it with Garmin or your friends. No surveying expertise is needed — you just fish and it let it handle the map creation. 

Add more advanced maps

Optional Garmin Navionics Vision+™ premium cartography brings a fresh look to your ECHOMAP's maps. This service delivers high-resolution relief shading, satellite imagery, sonar imagery and much more. A subscription to Garmin Navionics Vision+ is required to receive the content, and some content is only available through the ActiveCaptain app; visit Garmin's website for more details.

NMEA 2000® network-ready

When you integrate the 74sv with your NMEA 2000 network, you'll be able to see engine data, check sensors, manage autopilot, and more.

Powerful and portable

Keeping your ECHOMAP chartplotter safe and secure when you're not on board is remarkably easy. The cords plug directly into the mount, so you won't have to waste time plugging and unplugging wires. Just remove your Garmin from power and the mount, then stow it away and go.
