Bob thanks for that.
Yeah the Map330 seems like a beauty.
Escecially if you can get Aust Base map loaded.
I have seen them on ebay and they usually go for
$250 & thats new.
I want to be careful about the total amount so I can't go
over $499.99AUD otherwise you pay duty & gst.
Then if that's the case I'd rather pay a bit more and buy local
to get local warranty.
WAAS - not sure about that! Where have you got that info from.
I've read that there are no base stations in Oz and they don't plan
on setting up in future. Advised to turn off WAAS if you can, so
I have read.
The beauty is if I connect gps to finder that is gps ready,
all the data goes on the 320x320 finder screen plus giving you
speed in knots etc (which would cost $100 alone to install on the boat)
Models are being superseded at the moment in gps's & finder's
so I am in no hurry, just watching the prices on the net at the mo.
cheers
