Hi all,
My husband wants a portable gps for our 18ft.outboard Wellcraft. He also
wants to use it for the car on occasion; but one made for boats primarily.
Santa doesn't want to spend too much. I'm looking at the Christmas circulars
and have no idea where to get one, maybe a marine store. Any suggestions
would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

Start with this site: http://www.gpsworldsupply.com find what you like and
google it. You will find dozens of discounters.

How much detail do you want for the car? The Garmin GPSmap 76 (also available
in color) is a great handheld but lacks detailed street information.
