Many seamark symbols are built into Garmin devices which are available 
when the device is in marine mode. There is no in-built facility to 
render light sectors. OpenSeaMap use purpose-written renderers to do 
this for their charts.

A contributor to this list, RheinSkipper, had done a lot of work to 
fully exploit the Garmin marine mode. Hopefully he will respond to this 
thread to explain more.
