I am considering buying a GPS chart plotter such as the Garmin 176. I will be using the boat only around the Irish Sea. Is this what I need so that I can find out where I am in adverse conditions? What do I need??
Thought I would reply as this subject has been raised numerously on this fine site. Click on 'search' and type in GPS, you will find many good threads discussing the virtues of plotters and Gps hardware. Hope this helps.
