I've had a Garmin GPS 12 for years. It has all the basic waypoint, route and backtrack features and can still be found, at reasonable prices. It is old school, but it works well with my laptop and TOPO USA as a moving map. I have many waypoints in Dana that were obtained from charts and maps and have been right on.
It's not color or the latest and greatest but is a powerful device. My $.02 |

TOPO is not super detailed as far as marine topography goes, but it does the job for charting waypoints and routes.

Thanks Guys, I have a new GPS!
I bought the Garmin 76csx that floats. I got a killer deal at West Marine. Wait did I say that!? Yep $100 off then an additional 10% off -down to 315.00
The cheapest online was 357.00 plus S&H James

You want to be sure it can directly tie into the 12v source without a voltage regualtor. My 12 does not, but the 12xl did. Batteries are expensive. Waterproof. |
