Refreshing a GPS Standard
The GPSMAP 60Cx is a refreshing upgrade of the GPSMAP 60C,
one of our most popular models for outdoor and marine use. This
unit features a removable microSD card for detailed mapping
memory and a waterproof, rugged housing. The microSD card slot
is located inside the waterproof battery compartment. Users can
load map data and transfer routes and waypoints through the
unit’s fast USB connection. In addition, this unit features a
new, highly sensitive GPS receiver that acquires satellites
faster and lets users track their location in challenging
conditions, such as heavy foliage or deep canyons.
Considered the mainstay among serious outdoor enthusiasts,
the GPSMAP 60Cx and
GPSMAP
60CSx offer a large color TFT display and turn-by-turn routing
capability. Each unit comes with a blank 64 MB microSD card.
Owners of these new x-series handhelds can also purchase new
microSD cards that are pre-loaded with MapSource® Topo and
inland lake maps, BlueChart® marine cartography, and City
Navigator™ street maps.
