Cheap - Simple to use - ROCK solid

Date of Review:  May 10, 2008
The Bottom Line: With this unit you can have 3 of them, backups!, for the price of 1 fancy unit. www.sailingfreespirit.com
Review: In 4 years of sailing this is the only unit I used with marine maps by Nobletech on a laptop. This is a GPS to use with other maps, the base maps are useless. Simple to use and enter waypoints. I was very impressed by the toughness of this unit...

Garmin GPS 72 (It is a winner!)

Date of Review:  Jun 11, 2003
The Bottom Line: For a non-mapping GPS Receiver that you can purchase for under $150.00 I believe it is a winner!
Review: I was looking to purchase a non-mapping GPS Receiver. After doing a few hours of web-research I kept coming back to the Garmin model 72 and 76. Both models had the features that I needed. The only differences between these two models are: The Model...
