Garmin GPSMAP 76C Hand Held
GPS
All other marine handheld GPS units pale when compared to the
GPSMAP 76C and GPSMAP 76CS—literally.
The latest color-display technology gives both units the
brightest, sunlight-readable displays available. And with brand-new
state-of-the-art receivers and powerful microprocessors, these units will give
you a quick and steady fix.
Both the GPSMAP 76C and GPSMAP 76CS have the familiar GPS
76-family keypads and styling, with 115 MB of memory, an Americas Autoroute
basemap, and a Marine Point database. Fast USB connectivity makes loading charts
and maps quick and easy, while navigation instructions can be shared with
repeaters, plotters, and autopilots using NMEA protocols through the dedicated
serial port.
They’re waterproof and fully compatible with MapSource products
like BlueChart®, U.S. Topo 24K, and City Select® (which provides detailed
streets for turn-by-turn guidance).
