GPS Questions
 
What do you have in your boat for a GPS? I want to put one in my Fountain to show me how to get to different areas / islands and want to know what's the best and most popular unit out there. If anybody has one for sale, please let me know as well.

I like the 76CSx, you can use it in car or boat. I have found the TOPO maps to be very accurate on the water.

Try www.getfeetwet.com I have bought several units from them over the years and have never had a problem.

I really like the garmin 376c that I recently purchased. It works on both land and water. You can hook up the GXM30 antenna for WX weather and also use it for a depth gauge (and more) via the GSD 21 sounder.

The garmin 478 comes with all the US roads and costal waterways maps pre loaded I think the 378 is loaded with lakes (and roads) instead of open waters. The 376c you have to load the maps.

This is the deal I got on the 376c and the GXM30 antenna.

Used to keep mine mounted to mount I made that used a couple of the dash screws so I wouldn't have to drill any holes for those few times I wanted to use it. Haven't used it for a few yrs though. Seems any place it wouldfit on above the dash, it was right in your line of sight.
