GPSMAP 162

 

The GPSMAP 162™ offers boat owners an affordable option in fixed-mount navigation.

The GPSMAP 162 is a combination GPS receiver and chartplotter that's rich in features including a powerful 12 parallel channel GPS receiver and tide prediction tables. It has a built-in worldwide basemap with U.S. highways, interstates, rivers, and lakes. Even more remarkable, the GPSMAP 162 can accept downloaded map data from GARMIN's MapSource™ line of CD-ROMs.

Physically, the unit resembles GARMIN's popular Fishfinder 240. The GPSMAP 162 measures about five by six inches in size and boasts a four-level gray FSTN LCD display with 240 x 240 pixels. Even in the dark the units are easy to read, thanks to a backlit display.

The GPSMAP 162: a boatload of features in a sleek unit that won't eat up precious space onboard. (This product will be available March 2000.)

  • GPSMAP 162 chartplotting receiver
