GPS Bargain
 
My main GPS is a fixed mount Gamin 182 but I have been wanting a small hand held for back up and when I am not in the boat.

Yesterday my wife found, at Sam's Club, a Magellan 330X hand held. It is a chartplotter with WAAS and comes with a PC cable MapSend CD and mounting bracket and has 16mb of memory. The price was $199.00 and a $50.00 rebate brought it down to $149.00. Great price for a handheld chartplotter. I have been playing with it and it is a nice little unit. The screen is small but for occasional use and as a back up it is great.

nasty the bike is runnning well. And i am really enjoying riding it. SO gfar no close calls. It pretty funny i bought it offa buddy of mine and he has a harley (for sale currently, to be replaced witrh an aprilia) and teh wear marks on eth tires showed he pretty much roa dit straight up within 3 days of ridign it I have doubled the width of the wear pattern, out to within 1/4" of the edges :D

he was about a 1" frome th edges. I'm not exactly even sure why he is gettinga faster bigger bike he didn't really lean the r6....

By the way, at my Sam's Club the GPS was in the automotive section.

read the fine print! Make sure it is WAAS usable and not just WAAS capable. Big difference. If in fact it is WAAS usable, buy it!
