Garmin Echomap UHD2 – Compact, Clear, and Built for Kiwi Waters

They say locals know best. But anyone who has fished with the Garmin Echomap UHD2 5” and 7” chartplotters knows that the right electronics can give you an even greater advantage. These compact units pack a huge punch, delivering bright, sunlight-readable displays, advanced sonar, and smart mapping that help you fish smarter.

Whether you’re exploring inland lakes or heading offshore for snapper and kingfish, the Echomap UHD2 gives you the clarity, reliability, and rugged design you need for every trip.

Double the View with Advanced Sonar

Sonar is at the heart of every fishfinder, and Garmin delivers it in style. These units feature CHIRP traditional sonar, which sends a sweep of frequencies to create crisp, well-defined images. Fish stand out clearly, and bait schools are easy to identify.

To go even further, ClearVü scanning sonar provides near-photographic images beneath your boat. Rocks, vegetation, wrecks, and fish show up in striking detail. Together, CHIRP and ClearVü give you double the view, so you never miss what’s happening below the surface.

Bright Displays You Can Count On

The 5-inch and 7-inch screens are built for real-world fishing conditions. Crisp and vibrant, they remain readable even in direct sunlight or cloudy skies. Harsh glare won’t wash them out, and fine details stay sharp.

Colours pop, contours are clear, and you can focus on fishing instead of fighting a dull display. With the Echomap UHD2, visibility is never an issue.

Smarter Mapping and Easy Navigation

Charts and navigation tools matter just as much as sonar. These units support Garmin Navionics+ charts, offering detailed coverage for coastal areas and inland lakes. For even more precision, upgrading to Navionics Vision+ adds relief shading, satellite imagery, and advanced navigation features.

Marking waypoints and creating routes is quick and simple, so you can find your way to secret fishing spots or return safely to the ramp without worry.

Create Custom Maps as You Go

Garmin Quickdraw Contours is one of the standout tools included in the series. It allows you to build your own maps while you’re on the water. Every contour is recorded down to one-foot accuracy, letting you create a personal fishing map library.

Over time, your unit builds a record of your favourite spots, helping you return to productive areas season after season.

Built-In Wi-Fi® Connectivity

Sharing information has never been easier. Thanks to built-in Wi-Fi®, these chartplotters can sync sonar, routes, and waypoints wirelessly with other compatible devices on your boat. Every screen stays updated, and your crew always has the same information at hand.

Rugged Design for Anglers

The Echomap UHD2 is designed to handle the marine environment. The quick-release bail mount makes it easy to remove the unit for storage or security. Controls are keypad-based, so they work reliably even when your hands are wet or gloved.

Durability, ease of use, and portability make these chartplotters a practical choice for everyday anglers.

Compact Size, Big Performance

Don’t be fooled by the small footprint. These chartplotters are compact enough for smaller trailer boats and tinnies, yet powerful enough for offshore missions. For New Zealand anglers who fish a mix of fresh and saltwater, the balance of portability and capability is ideal.
