Product Information

Manufacturer: Garmin Category: GPS Units Type: Marine GPS
Model: 010-00166-00 SKU: VHF720 UPC: 753759016746
Announced: November 30, 1999 First Shipped: April 22, 2003 Weight: 3.000 lbs.

Manufacturer Description

The VHF 720 is a small, stand-alone radio transceiver that-unlike many handhelds radios-can survive constant saltwater spray or even an accidental dunk in the bait well. The battery compartment is sealed off from the main circuitry so the unit remains water tight-even while the batteries are being changed. The battery tray slides out completely for easy loading, and accommodates both alkaline and NiCad batteries.

The VHF 720 boasts a unique ''knobless'' design for simple operation which allows simultaneously squelch and volume adjustment. A large, backlit display gives crisp detail even in direct sunlight, perfect for communications in open fishing boats. All of the unit's key function-including squelch and volume adjustment, channel selection, channel scanning, weather alert, and Tri-Watch monitoring-are accessible via a waterproof keypad.

Rain or shine, the GARMIN VHF 720 will make a welcome addition to any mariner's footlocker.

GPS city is a great place to buy RAM products for your motorcycle. Their prices are better than any I have found on the internet and the service is superior

This was one of my best online shopping experiences ever! The guest checkout option is a nice feature

You did guud! How can you make my shopping better? Make me a smarter person and GPS City psychic so you will know what I need and when I will need it. End result, nothing. Unless you want to reduce you prices and shipping? No, that's OK. Enjoy Memorial Day. Take time to think of at least one veteran
