RE: [Paddlewise] Best GPS???

The 12 map has a downloadable topo map which has offshore
contours...possibly useful for diving. It's as waterproof as any GPS.

Hello everyone!

Not to very long ago someone posted an opinion of their Garmin GPS unit and
naturally I've  lost that email.  I would like to hear your opinions on
handheld
GPS units for paddling.  I'm looking for something to use to locate
particular
diving/fishing holes.  Should be waterproof, store an appropriate amount of
data
(say 30 dive sites/fishing holes) and be easy to read.  It's is to be used
in
combination with a depth finder.

I'm just beginning to learn about these things and expect to purchase one in
the
next 60 days to prep for summer.
Any information you can offer would be terrific.
Thanks,
Cheryl
sometimes coastal paddler
