Mapping a Body of Water

1 Insert an SD card to one of the SD card slots.
2 Select Start Recording.
3 Press [MENU] > Quickdraw Contours > Stop Recording to stop recording.
When Garmin Quickdraw Contours records data, a colored circle surrounds the vessel
icon. The circle represents the approximate area of the map that is scanned by each pass.
• A green circle indicates good depth and GPS position, and a speed under 16 km/h.
• A yellow circle indicates good depth and GPS position, and a speed between 16 and
32 km/h.
• A red circle indicates poor depth or GPS position, and a speed above 32 km/h.
The amount of saved data depends on the size of your memory card, your sonar source,
and the speed of your boat as you record data. You can record longer when you use a
single-beam sonar. It is estimated that you might be able to record about 1,500 hours of
data onto a 2 GB memory card.
When you record data on a memory card, the new data is added to your existing Garmin
Quickdraw Contours map, and is saved on the memory card. When you insert a new
memory card, the existing data does not transfer onto the new card.
