Jeff, I have used the Magellan SporTrakCOLOR for some time now. It has some fine maps but it also has a lot af fancy stuff that I appreciate. Worse, the display has low intensity and it just eats the batteries if you activate the backlight which happens every time you touch a button. So be carefull about colorscreens although they make reading easier. If you keep it on deck to read it's very fine and responsive. Jens Viggo, Denmark "I don't need a ton of fancy stuff that I will never use. I would like to be able to read it without my reading glasses. Of course, I want it as waterproof as possible. Does anybody have an opinion on which is the best brand and model? *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
