Default I'm lost . . . GPS

Anyone have a GPS in/on a late 80's early 90's 311 or ??? I sold my GPS with my last boat and am considering a flush mount (if there is room) or a marine mount 170/80 series Garmin. As always, pics appreciated.

And no, I don't have enough to do- I have to ask silly questions and seek photographs- its 9 degrees outside.

I mounted a handheld on my 272. Garmin GPSmap75. This pic shows the dash remote too.

It's just a little island party the first Friday of Summer. It started 20 or so years ago when a couple of automotive engineers (jobbies) took an afternoon off to celebrate a couple of birthdays on the lake (pulled a nooner). Now it's grown to 1000+ boats and they estimate 5000 people. It's a pretty big party when you consider that it's not really sponsored and it happens on a weekday. Thanks for bringing that up, I need to ask for the day off tomorrow.

Here's another pic. Our 336 is in the raft at the bottom of the pic, 6 boats to the right of the emergency access lane. Cardshark is the red and white 388 Hustler 2 to the left of us and AggressorTom's (Tmager) 32 Sunsation is to the right , second from the end. That was as close to the island as we could get and we got there around 10 a.m. The water was chest deep and a little cool, but after a few, it didn't really matter. Patriot, P29-Scarab, and Milord were a raft closer to the island (look straight up from us for the red and yellow boat).
