seems ok to me cant see it being a prob at sea maybe if your in a forest.

just have to make sure its uk base map one but seems a waste of storage if you cant download maps from p.c but we only need waypoints and it is cheap! some other people may be able to help so just wait till tuesday before buying.

i love raymarine gear, but sadly it well out of my price range. iv used the equipment on lots of boats on seatrials and on the odd occasion when a boat needs to go fishing for its sea trial.lol
if you can afford the extra mega expence the c80 and c120 chart ploters are like a bible to the sea

I only want a cheapy! raymarine is nice but would sadly look out of place on my 13ft tank of doom..............

Souther Shandy Drinkers! Whats wrong with using some mackie feathers for depth and someone shouting "Can't see owt!" from the front of the boat?

If you are looking for a fixed unit try here www.gaelforcemarine.co.uk/PromotionDetails1.aspx?promotion_id=180

I have one of these units and find its great. At this price including a chart I doubt if it can be beaten.

I bought an eagle cuda 240 off ebay cost £249 new i got it for £67 its great as gps or fishfinder does both. Look for what you want and try ebay look for when items are finishing when people are at work you'll be amazed how cheap some bits are.
Anyway this cuda 240 you can log waypoints etc and it will nav you straight to them superb.

Pretty small though but thats what i wanted
