Why it’s ideal for SIB and small-boat fishing

• 6″ touchscreen with keyed-assist – gives fast touch control with physical keys for reliable use in chop and cold hands.
• Compact but powerful – fits smaller consoles while adding premium sonar and chartplotter capability.
• Multi-band GPS – improves position accuracy in areas where signals can be weak or reflected.
• Wireless sharing – share sonar, waypoints and routes with another compatible ECHOMAP UHD2 unit onboard.

Sonar support

Get high-contrast views around the boat with support for Garmin traditional sonar plus ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonar, and add LiveScope compatibility when you want live-scanning capability.

• Traditional sonar – track fish arches and bait movement with dependable CHIRP-style target separation.
• ClearVü scanning – see structure and bottom detail with a cleaner, photo-like presentation.
• SideVü scanning – cover more water and locate structure and fish to either side of the boat.
• Vivid colour palettes – choose high-contrast colours to make targets and structure easier to distinguish.

Transducer options

• GT20-TM option – a great all-round pairing for traditional sonar and DownVü-style scanning on smaller craft.
• GT56UHD-TM option – adds stronger scanning capability including SideVü for wider coverage and faster structure finding.
