[C320-list] chart plotter

[Mike Ott]

Bob and Barb,
We have a small Garmin (700 series I think) and it has worked well for us.  Got 
this model because the antenna was built it and we didn't have to try to snake 
yet another cable down the binnacle rail.
Be sure to check Defender Marine for pricing, they always beat WM by a mile.
Going to try something different this next season.  Santa brought me an iPad for 
Christmas (didn't think I was that good all year ?).  I've bought the iNavX 
chart pack software and will get a wireless GPS antenna, plus an Griffin Armored 
iPad case, plus a rail-mounted iPad holder and I'll have a 10" chart-plotter for 
under $225.

Hi, group,

Sailing Charlotte Harbor is not like sailing Carlyle Lake in west central 
Illinois.  A chartplotter would be nice....

We have looked at the Garmin 4210 at WM, but always like to check the 
competition.  They don't seem to have much competition on this unit.  I 
understand WM will match competitors prices.  Any suggestions?  Maybe a 
different unit?  Different supplier?  We do have the Raymarine st60 (I think 
that's what is is on a 2008 320) stuff on the boat.  We would love to hear from 
you.  Thanks and Happy New Year!!
