Imagine navigating choppy coastal waters with confidence or spotting that perfect school of fish just below the surface—all from a compact, powerful 7-inch display that fits seamlessly into your boat's helm. The Garmin GPSMAP 742xs remanufactured model delivers pro-level performance for serious anglers and boaters who demand reliability without the premium new-unit cost. Certified refurbished by the manufacturer, this unit arrives tested, calibrated, and ready to enhance your on-water adventures with crisp coastal charts and advanced sonar capabilities.
This versatile chartplotter/fishfinder combines intuitive touchscreen controls with robust marine electronics, making it a go-to choice for kayaks, center consoles, and larger vessels alike. Its high-sensitivity GPS/GLONASS receiver locks in positions quickly, even in challenging environments like crowded marinas or under heavy tree cover near inlets.
Whether you're plotting a course from Miami to the Keys or hugging the rugged Pacific shoreline, the built-in charts provide Auto Guidance technology that suggests safe routes, avoiding shallow spots and no-go zones. Overlay weather radar, SiriusXM data (subscription optional), or engine info for a complete helm picture. Sailors appreciate the laylines and sailing features, while powerboaters love the one-touch waypoint returns and man-overboard functions.
Pair it with your choice of Garmin transducers to unlock split-screen views: traditional sonar for depth and fish arches, plus panoramic SideVü scans up to 500 feet per side. Traditional anglers get reliable bottom tracking, while tech-savvy users dial in frequencies from 50 kHz to 200 kHz for customized coverage.
Remanufactured units undergo rigorous factory testing, replacing any worn parts and restoring them to like-new condition. You'll get the same 1-year warranty as new models, full software support, and zero compromises on performance. It's a smart, eco-friendly pick for upgrading your setup or replacing a battle-worn unit—perfect for budget-conscious captains who refuse to skimp on quality.
With dual microSD slots, add high-res LakeVü g3 or BlueChart g3 Vision cards for inland lakes or premium satellite imagery. Connect GMR radars, GHP autopilots, or GXM satellite receivers to build a networked system that grows with your boat.
Mount flush or with a bail for quick access, using the included gimbal knobs for angle tweaks. Power it via 10-32 VDC, and daisy-chain NMEA 2000 for multi-device setups. Calibrate sonar in calm water for accurate readings, and use the split-screen layouts to monitor charts, sonar, and engine data simultaneously. Regular firmware updates via Wi-Fi keep it cutting-edge.
"Switched to this on my 24-foot center console—night-and-day difference in finding reefs and structure compared to my old basic plotter."

No, this model ships without a transducer. It's designed for flexibility, so you can select the perfect Garmin GT or GCV black box sonar module for your boat and fishing style.
It comes preloaded with Garmin Navionics+ or BlueChart g3 U.S. Coastal charts, covering coastlines from Maine to Mexico with shaded depth contours and Points of Interest.
Yes—remanufactured by Garmin, it undergoes full diagnostic testing, part replacements if needed, and includes the standard 1-year warranty, performing identically to a new unit.
Absolutely. While optimized for coastal use, add LakeVü charts via microSD for inland waters. The sonar works great in both environments with compatible transducers.
The capacitive touchscreen responds best to bare fingers or styluses, but you can switch to keypad mode for gloved operation during cold-weather trips.
Use the built-in NMEA 2000 port for sharing data with radars, autopilots, and engines. Wi-Fi enables ActiveCaptain app integration for community charts and updates.
Low 17W typical draw suits battery-powered setups. Includes flush mount, bail mount, and surface mount kits for flexible helm integration.
