Hi-
My ancient old first generation handheld GPS appears to have finally died. Looking to replace it with a relatively inexpensive handheld GPS/chartplotter for our yacht/crab boat (14 foot tinny). The best looking device I see on Amazon right now is the Garmin GPSMAP 78 for a little over $200...

I am posting this here rather than in the Merc forum because I know the OB in question is really a Tohatsu powerhead. It's a 2006 Mercury 9.9 4 stroke. It's been stored most of the last 3 years and I recently pulled it out of storage because we plan on selling it. The engine was "run dry"...
