Good deal. You can get a pocket GPS with data and power cable for a
reasonable price, and there are lots of used laptops around on the
internet. You really don't need more than a Pentium 3 with Win2K
and they are dime a dozen right now. For the boat and car you'll need
a $40 inverter from West Marine, less from Walmart.

I'd forgotten you were a virtual neighbor. If you scan Google Earth
in Cape Coral you can actually find our trawler docked behind the
house, obviously not in real time.
