| The GPSMAP
176C is a 12 parallel channel, WAAS-capable GPS receiver with an extra-large, 16-color
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 176C comes equipped
with a built-in worldwide basemap and tide data for the United States. The unit is
enhanced by GARMIN's BlueCart marine cartography, a miniature-size chip that inserts
into the unit and provides additional offshore map detail. 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 176C
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 176C
to be temporarily mounted in a car. |
