Thanks for the info from those who answered my earlier post. Couple more
questions.

The Garmin MAP76 or the Garmin MAP76s .

If I have this right; first buy the GPS unit, then get the Blue Charts.
Load the Blue Charts ,,, off and running.

How do the Blue Charts load? Is there a software program which I must buy?

I am looking at a picture of the GPS unit and it doesn't look very big. So,
I got to thinking that there must be some trick to loading info into the
device.

Also,,, where is a good store, outlet, online store, whatever which would be
good to shop for the GPS and the Blue Charts?

I looked on Ebay and didn't really see any deals.

Do you think I could get out of this for under $300?

Anymore info on GPS, handheld, whatever ????

Thanks all.
