Garmin GPSMAP 79S Marine Handheld w/ Worldwide Map
This handheld is water-resistant IPX7 with a high-resolution colour display you can read in the sun. The glass is even scratch-resistant and fogproof. If rough waters come and the handheld goes overboard, don’t worry. This device floats. User-replaceable AA batteries (not included) provide up to 19 hours of battery life in GPS tracking mode. With support for multiple satellite constellations — such as GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS and SBAS — you’ll get accurate, reliable tracking and positioning around the world. More memory than previous models means you can save and track 10,000 waypoints, 250 routes and 300 fitness activity files. The 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass shows your heading — even while the boat is standing still. Preloaded BlueChart g3 coastal charts (GPSMAP 79sc only) give you leading-edge coverage, clarity and detail with integrated Garmin and Navionics data.

A bit bulky with a very good performance during the run. Somehow need to install the charts before used it.

My review is not to minimize the Garmin GPS unit, it is agood unit and works fine. My interests was for a greater available detail to its map quality, seeking more with satalite view and integration. I found a unit the 66i that better suits my needs and wants.
