Description:
The GPSMAP 76S adds a built-in electronic compass and barometric altimeter,
an Americas, European or Pacific basemap and 24 megabytes (MB) of map storage
space to the other outstanding features of the mariner-friendly 76-series
navigators.
Get Your Bearings
The GPSMAP 76S has a built-in electronic compass that provides bearing
information even while you're standing still, and its barometric altimeter
tracks changes in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude. You can even use
the altimeter to plot barometric or ambient pressure over time, which can help
you keep an eye on changing weather conditions.
Use on Land or Water
Don't worry about losing this GPS device in the drink. Like the rest of the
76-series, the 76S floats in water, and it's IPX7 waterproof to withstand the
accidental dunk or splash in the lake. Whether on water or land, the 76S can
save up to 1000 of your favorite places in memory and can take you directly to
your destination.
Store More Data
The GPSMAP 76S is preloaded with a basemap of principle cities, interstates
(including exits), highways and roads as well as marine navigation aids,
including lights, buoys, sound signals and day beacons. It also has 24 MB of
internal memory, so you can load detailed maps from a variety of optional
MapSource products. If you're into boating, hunting or fishing, you can use the
built-in celestial data, which includes tide information, sunrise/sunset times
and a hunting and fishing calendar.
