GPSMAP® 585 Plus

Durable devices that go wherever you go and track your precise location in the process. Go farther than ever before when hiking and finding adventure.

The Power of Garmin CHIRP

The built-in sonar capabilities of GPSMAP 585 Plus includes  CHIRP sonar, the most sophisticated sonar technology available for the fishing and boating public. CHIRP sonar provides amazingly clear target separation and definition because it puts even more energy onto the target than traditional sonar. It also includes sonar-recording capability that coordinates the timing of the sonar return with your boat’s position and saves digital information for playback on a computer using  HomePort™ planning software. Use the user data sharing cable to share waypoints and routes between multiple devices.

Clearest Scanning Sonar on the Water

Garmin CHIRP ClearVü scanning sonar gives you a nearly photographic image down below your boat. Traditional Garmin HD-ID™ sonar and ClearVü scanning sonar are combined into 1 transducer.

With the Best Maps on the Water Supporting

Two standard SD™ card slots provide expandable memory for accessory map purchases such as BlueChart® g2, BlueChart® g2 Vision®. The BlueChart g2 Vision provide exclusive Garmin Auto Guidance, a technology that directs you to your hot spots. Based on your boat’s specifications, Auto Guidance instantly creates a visual path you can follow to avoid shallow water and other charted obstructions.

Quickdraw Contours: Create Your Own HD Maps

Quickdraw Contours is a free, easy-to-use software feature already installed on your GPSMAP 585 Plus. It instantly creates your own personalized HD fishing maps on screen with 1-foot contours. Tailor the maps as needed; you own them. Keep the data for yourself, or share it with Garmin or your friends. No special surveying expertise is required. You just fish while Quickdraw Contours creates maps. There’s no waiting around or sending your files away like other mapping software requires — your results appear instantly.

Compatible with GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou

With multi positioning modes supports to GPS, GLONASS and BeiDou three powerful systems. It is quick and easy to drop up to 12,000 accurate waypoints and find your way back to your secret fishing hot spots. Huge capacity memory to help fishermen record danger spot(Mark) and the destination(Waypoint).

Enhanced Auto Guidance

Just enter the location where you want to go and patented Garmin Auto Guidance technology instantly searches through relevant charts to create a safe, virtual pathway on the display that helps you avoid low bridges, shallow water and other charted obstructions en route.

With enhanced Version 2.0, you have access to more features and capabilities. You’re able to adjust the calculated Auto Guidance pathway by inserting via points at interim stops or landmarks along your desired route. You can easily review hazard points along your calculated path. Other 2.0 enhancements give you the ability to calculate arrival times at any point on your route (great for timing arrivals to correspond with bridge openings and other time-critical events). Better still, you can now save your plotted Auto Guidance paths for future navigation by backing them up on an SD™ card with your BlueChart g2 Vision or LakeVü HD Ultra cartography¹.
