The Garmin GPSMAP 8416xsv is the flagship of the 84 series for boat owners, sailors, and serious anglers who want maximum screen space and fully integrated sonar in one unit. The large 15.6" Full HD (1920 × 1080 px) IPS touchscreen provides crystal-clear viewing of charts, sonar, radar, engine, and system data – even in bright sunlight and while wearing polarized sunglasses.
The model comes with a global basemap and supports both Garmin Navionics+™ and Garmin Navionics Vision+™, BlueChart g3, and LakeVü g3, allowing you to customize charts for coastal navigation, lakes, depth contours, and advanced features like Auto Guidance+™ (via compatible charts).
As an xsv model, the GPSMAP 8416xsv features built-in 1 kW dual-channel CHIRP sonar combined with ClearVü and SideVü scanning sonar (260/455/800/1000/1200 kHz). This provides detailed 2D and structure views beneath and on both sides of the boat – ready for everything from trolling to vertical fishing and wreck searching (transducers sold separately). The unit also supports both Panoptix™ and LiveScope™ live sonar, allowing you to see fish and bait moving in real-time around the boat.
The GPSMAP 8416xsv is designed to be the heart of an advanced marine system with Garmin Marine Network, NMEA 2000®, NMEA 0183, and J1939, allowing you to integrate autopilot, engines, AIS, VHF, Fusion-Link™ audio, radar, IP cameras, digital switching (OneHelm™), and much more. SmartMode™ station layout makes it easy to change the entire screen setup (e.g., docking, navigation, fishing) with one tap, so you always have your most important data at hand.
Via Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth®, and ANT®, you can connect the unit with the ActiveCaptain® app, quatix® watches, gWind™ transducers, GNX™ instruments, and wireless remote controls. At the same time, you get easy access to software updates, OneChart, smart notifications, Quickdraw™ Community, and much more, directly from your tablet or smartphone.
The result is a professional 16" chartplotter/sonar combo for those who want one large, central screen with full sonar functionality, powerful network integration, and complete control over the entire boat's system from the same elegant helm solution.
