Hello
I travel for sport fishing, by 4WD towing a boat, along the 2000 kms coast
line.
I need a hand_held_MARINE_GPS which will allow me to upload the local map
to
my GPS.
The maps to upload could be MARINE C-Map or similar like Navman or
Magellan
CD maps.
As I fish in very remote areas I may need to enlarge or modify these MARINE
maps using a laptop computer.
Most GPS are battery hungry. This is not so much a problem because I have
enough 12 volts battery.
I need to see electronic charts with coastline detail;
navigation aids such as lighthouses, buoys and channel markers;
spot soundings and depths contours;
TIDES would be a real bonus.
