-- Also been using a GPS 72 for a few years now.  It's gotten wet and
thoroughly soaked and never a problem.  I know two other paddlers who use
GPS 76 ers (more elaborate but the same casing and mechanical construction)
and they too have never had any problems with water.  
	So yeah, maybe you did get two lemons in a row. Now, in Atlantic City if
you got a third one...
