It's not the GPS that's the problem, but the inaccurate charts. I
have used my
GPS
to enter some very narrow channels in the 'backcountry' of the lower
keys, but I

had to keep a sharp lookout for changes in the channels due to
hurricanes, tidal

currents, etc.

rely on too much on GPS for navigation.

Trust me on this one, there is no problem with GPS in the Keys.

You do have to know what you are doing however.


Q: Do you know what they call boaters who use only GPS for navigating
the Keys waters?

A: Aground!

The Keys are like the Bahamas. You must learn how to read depth from
water color.
