Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a chartplotter and a GPS?
A handheld GPS shows your position as coordinates or on a basic basemap. A chartplotter is a marine-specific device that shows your boat on detailed nautical charts with depth contours, navigation aids, hazards, and points of interest.
Do I need a chartplotter if my fish finder has GPS?
Most modern combination units serve as both a fish finder and a chartplotter. Dedicated standalone chartplotters are typically purchased for larger boats with multiple displays, where one display handles navigation while another handles sonar.
