NavMan Tracker 5500i
 
Anyone using this gps chartplotter?
It looks like it's comparable to the Garmin 182c.

I sell both at my parttime job and sell alot more garmins. And have had people return the navman and get either garmins or lowrances.

It all depends in what your REALLY want out of a chartplotter.............as in the options
I researched both....or should say a few of them

The fuel computer is a really great feature. Shows instant mpg, fuel used, fuel remaining, etc. I use an older Horizon/Navman plotter with the fuel feature on my old cruiser, and I love it.

I love it. I purchased and installed the Navman 5500 2 years ago when it first came out. The color screen is beautiful, and won't wash out in the sun. Using the larger fonts, I can read the display while running.

When I bought it, the Navman was about $150 less than the Garmin, which is a very good product. I just couldn't read the Garmin screen, so that and the price helped me make the decision.

I will check on it tomorrow night and see what i can do for you. But it does sound like a good deal.

Thought of another angle if someone is budget minded and wants to save a few bucks. As you search around the internet (i.e., using Mysimon or Froogle), you'll find some places offering factory refurbs with limited warranty scope.
