Manufacturer Description

The GPSMAP 176 is a 12 parallel channel, WAAS-capable GPS receiver with an extra-large display that makes keeping your eye on the map easy. The display measures 3.75 inches diagonal and delivers a crisp picture thanks to a pixel count of 320 x 240.

On the inside, the GPSMAP 176 comes equipped with a built-in worldwide basemap and tide data for the United States. The unit is enhanced by GARMIN's BlueChart marine cartography, a miniature-size chip that inserts into the unit and provides additional offshore map detail or CD-ROM*. The cartography includes detailed depth contours, inter-tidal zones, spot soundings, wrecks, navaids, port plans, restricted areas, cable areas, anchorages and much more.

For use in a car, the GPSMAP 176 can accept downloadable information from GARMIN's MapSource MetroGuide U.S.A. CD-ROM*. A special mounting bracket is available that will allow the GPSMAP 176 to be temporarily mounted in a car.

* This unit requires data memory cards for storage of CD-ROM data.
