I’d would be interested but I already have a Garmin 78. I use it as a back up to my sextant.

I've been looking for one since my 30X quit after a little battery leak. Frustrating. If you'd like to PM me perhaps we can make a deal.

Showing data boxes, they are custom to what you want to display. Either 2, 4 small, large or none.

After I installed the chartplotter I was about to toss my Garmin handheld away. It was draining the batteries in a couple hours even when turned off. It used to go for several days. Garmin said they don't work on them anymore. I decided to hardwire it in and use it as a dedicated GPS for the vhf's Digital Selective Calling feature. It's working good now. I still think it's just extra unnecessary stuff on the boat. But what the hell.
I have it and may as well use it.

SOLD! I just want to say that it was a pleasure dealing with ghockaday during this transaction. Could not have been better.
