Anyone using Garmin 182C chartplotter have any comments? Is the device
really readable in the sunlight? Would you buy again? Any other comments?
Thanks,

After whining about needing to upgrade the software (and not having a
macintosh way of doing so) I have to say I love this unit.

The charts are as good as advertised. The screen is so bright at night
I will need to dim it. I had no problem seeing it in direct sunshine on
our cruise this summer.

It was aslo easy to plug in marks and routes.

If you can get the bigger units (twice the price) you won't be sorry.
But it was the best boating purchase I made the past few years.

Agree completely. A bigger screen would be nice but for the $$$ the 182C
is A-OK.

One thing - do NOT *delete* any waypoints. MODIFY them as needed
instead. If you delete waypoint #1 you are left with waypoints 2 thru n.
AFAIK #1 is gone forever!! If anybody knows how to get it back please
advise us all.
