Get a sharper view from your connected helm with the GPSMAP® 743 chartplotter. Its higher-resolution 7" display has 60% more pixels than previous-generation chartplotters. The ultrasleek design with nearly double the processing power of previous-generation GPSMAP devices offers seamless integration into your Garmin marine system. Preloaded Garmin Navionics+™ coastal charts and inland mapping feature Auto Guidance+™ technology (Auto Guidance+ is for planning purposes only and does not replace safe navigation operations. ) for confidence in helping you get where you need to go. Plus, there’s support for optional Garmin Navionics Vision+™ premium map content. Easily build your marine system — from compatible sonar and autopilots to compatible radar, cameras and multimedia — by using HTML 5.0, NMEA 2000® and NMEA 0183 networking, J1939 for engines and the Garmin Marine Network. Add FrontVü™ forward-looking sonar (sold separately) (The ability to effectively avoid forward collisions with FrontVü sonar decreases as speed rises above 8 knots ) which can help in avoiding underwater obstructions ahead. Or pair your plotter with your other compatible Garmin devices, such as quatix® marine smartwatches, wind transducers, wireless remote controls and more.c
