Overview

The Garmin 010-C1180-00 is a Standard Mapping Texas East Classic chart on a microSD/SD card that loads detailed coastal and inland waterway mapping on compatible Garmin chartplotters.

It replaces the basic basemap with a fuller view of waterways and nearby land features, plus high-contrast offshore elevation shading that makes depth changes easier to read at a glance. A coastal aerial overlay adds high-resolution imagery and local place names so you can line up inlets, cuts, and shoreline details with what you see on deck.

Points of interest are included for common stops and launches, such as marinas, boat ramps, and fishing spots, which helps when you are moving between familiar water and a new stretch of coast.

Key features

• Preprogrammed Texas East Classic mapping on a microSD/SD card

• Statewide coastal aerial overlay with high-resolution imagery and local names
• Built-in points of interest, including marinas, boat ramps, and fishing spots

Compatibility and fit

This is a physical map card, so your plotter needs an open microSD or SD card slot and support for Garmin map cards. Coverage and features show up only on units that can read this chart format, so check chart compatibility for your exact chartplotter model before you rely on it for a trip.

Installation and setup

Insert the card into the chartplotter while the unit is off, then power up and select the chart layer from the chart setup pages. Most systems read the chart data directly from the card, so keep it installed whenever you want this Texas East mapping available.

Use on board

For coastal runs, it is useful when working channels, bays, and nearshore structure where a basic basemap feels too thin. It also suits anglers and cruisers who like having local names and aerial shoreline detail when setting up an approach into an unfamiliar area.

Care and handling

Keep the card dry and free of salt spray when it is out of the plotter, and store it in a protected place between trips. If you swap cards at the helm, do it with clean hands so grit does not end up in the card slot.
