[Rhodes22-list] GPS

[Michael Meltzer]

any of the Garmin will work, I would stress waterproof and long battery life, the mapping unit are nice but still are not their yet,
the screen are to small, but I do find them handy having the markers on them, for a lake you do not need it, but make sure you have
paper charts to know your relative position.
