Brian is correct .....
NO GPS can 'see' through steel or fiberglass, etc. The antenna MUST
have a clear unobstructed view of the satelites .... no wet sail, no
leaves, no roofs, no dodger or bimini, no steel panels.

The onboard navigation equipment worked well. The handheld Garmin GPS did
not work inside. As for the Magellan Gold it did the job good. My friend
had to stay close to the glass windows. My question is if one has to pick
