 Garmin's new handheld marine GPS, the GPSMAP 78 line - the GPSMAP 78, 78s and 78sc include all the current favorites, as well as some new amazing features. A similar series to the tried and true GPSMAP 76 line, these units are rugged, waterproof and float.

Wireless sharing between the 78s/78sc allow instantaneous transfer of thumbnails, routes, tracks, waypoints and geocaches. Preloaded US coastal charts on the 78sc provide detailed navigation info on the go, and the 3-axis compass on the 78s/78sc ensures accurate headings at all times. The entire line-up accepts Garmin's new Custom Maps and BirdsEye Satellite Imagery. Custom Maps is free and easy transformation of paper and electronic maps to Garmin-friendly data, to be downloaded onto your compatible Garmin device.
