About the Weather Overlay

The Weather Overlay superimposes weather and weather-related information on the Navigation chart, the
Fishing chart, and the Perspective 3D chart. The Navigation chart and the Fishing chart can show WX radar,
cloud cover, lightning, WX buoys, county warnings, and hurricane warnings. The Perspective 3D chart can
show WX radar.
Weather Overlay settings configured for use on one chart are not applied to another chart. The Weather
Overlay settings for each chart must be configured separately.
Note: Fishing charts are available if you use a BlueChart g2 Vision SD card, a BlueChart g2 SD card, or if
your built-in map supports Fishing charts.
