Padraig, Id agree with you. I have a garmin 740S on my Scarab and it is very easy to use (with what little I use it for). The only problem I ave had on my Scarab is the screen is small. On my new boat, (24' Sea Ray Flybridge), I wanted to try something different. I wanted something that has a bigger screen, and easier portability between using it on the top or bottom helm.

My biggest question is If I do not have cellular service to connect either an Ipad or an android device to, will the GPS still work?

from my experiance, yes...... as long as the ipad is cellular capable. If it is a WiFi only iPad it does not work well if at all...... but the service does not need to be hooked up. I was told that the ones that are cell ready have a gps inside and when I use my iPad pro for a gps it works great. I do not have it hooked up for service.....
