If you do decide to buy a gps unit, make certain that it is compatable with the bizer chip!! But, as others have pointed out you need to know how to navigate with chart and compas. If you travel to other places, other states, or even other lakes within this state, be advised that you will have to make certain that your software (chip) covers that body of water and covers it in detail. Marine gps units are not like units you purchase for your car. For example, the unit will not say "in 200 ft turn right" you will need to read the manual carefully. Good luck!!
