Garmin GPSMAP 79sc, Marine GPS Handheld Preloaded With BlueChart g3 Coastal Charts, Rugged Design and Floats in Water
- This is a well made durable unit. The instructions are very confusing and it takes a lot of trial and error to figure out the process. Read the instructions all the way through before attempting to use it and it may seem a little clearer, go one step at a time.
- best handheld GPS I\'ve ever had.
- The 79SC is a quality product but, for me, too similar to the 78SC to be worth doling out $380.00. I have owned the 78SC for years and am in the unique position to be able to compare every feature in the marine category. A difficult learning curve for sure if this is your first experience so get ready to sit for hours fiddling with it until its memorized. I decided to stick with the 78SC and returned 79SC. I think the 78SC is discontinued and for the or the record if I had to get a replacement I would buy the 79SC. By the way, the daylight (bright sunshine) screen brightness is exactly the same in both models. The indoor brightness is a bit more in the 79SC. The marine Bluechart details are very similar in both models. My advise? Get the unit, buy a canoe or kayak and enjoy. Use it to mark your hot fishing spots so you can go back.
- Works great, I just used it to navigate to Catalina Island
- Have used Garmin GPS’s for over 15 Years..! The 79SC menu is Difficult & Counterintuitive.. Very Unhappy
- Sailing GPS emergency backup.
- Great job very quick on the delivery
- Muy buen equipo
