Customer Reviews:

3 out of 5 stars OK, however.   September 9, 2008
Charles Dulay (Chgo., IL USA)
Works fine however, the car cord would not plug into the unit so I sent it back to Amazon for an exchange. The second unit had the same problem so I called Garmin. First, the guy told me to force it in and when I refused, he admitted that there was a problem with the cord and that they had a different cord. The new cord inserts easily and the entire unit works very well both on land and water. It would be nice to have touch-screen capabiities.

Loaded with lots of information. Would be easier to use if touch screen. Marine lake detail did not include my favorite lake which is the second largest in its State (44,000 acres). Bummed since I could not find a list of the covered Lakes at the Garmin site.

The unit arrived in good order. Am still working on the operating manual. This GPS has many options to set up and different ways to connect to a vehicle. It will take some time to take advantage of all it has to offer.
