Garmin Store: Gentlemen, Start Your (Boat) Engines!
For the mariners here in Chicago, April 15 is more than just the day their taxes must be filed with the IRS (this year it’s actually the 16th for most people but who’s counting?). The 15th of April also signifies the unofficial start of boating season for the Windy City crowd. Most of the major harbors here in Chicago are owned and controlled by the Chicago Park District, and they are not open year-round. So while the “Official” opening of the Harbors isn’t until May 1st, the Park district allows many boaters to access their slips starting on April 15th. There are 4 major harbors near our store here on Michigan Ave.: Monroe Harbor, DuSable Harbor, Diversey Harbor, and Belmont Harbor. Those of you familiar with the former Meigs Field may remember DuSable Harbor, which sits between the former lakefront airport and Lakeshore Drive. With all of the harbors and breakwaters around the Chicago shores, a high-tech Garmin Chartplotter, such as the new 5212 can certainly help you find your way. For those of you without charting for Lake Michigan, grab region 2US016R in either regular Bluechart format or on a pre-loaded G2 card and you’ll be navigating in no time. If you need a Garmin datacard loaded or need to update your pre-loaded chartplotter, we’ll have the capability to do that here in the store very shortly. If you’re in the area and would like to have this done, give us a call here at the store and we’ll be happy to assist. Happy Boating!
