" Review: Garmin GPSMAP 78s - I purchased this marine gps unit on July 4th 2012 and used it on a trip from Canary Wharf to Harwich and back on an old coal fired steam tug later on that month. I cannot praise it's performance enough being totally accurate at all times and even more useful with the micro SD card containing the Dover to Amsterdam and England Southeast marine chart which I purchased direct from Garmin. It took some time to work through the full instruction manual(downloaded from Garmin)and I had to phone Garmin a couple of times for help which was politely and patiently given. This unit gave great piece of mind during our trip and I would thoroughly recommend it. Review: Brilliant - Spot on .. Brilliant bit of kit ..

Once you start tracking the MOB, a path is outlined as to where you are relative to the original mark, plus the bearing back (or reciprical) and distance back to the mark. The same is for using a waypoint. Once the waypoint is set, you can go to it using FIND button, click on the waypoint, hit GO and you get the same path shown plus the reciprical bearing and distance. **Q: Does the basemap that comes with it show the marine topography?** A: No, this device is meant for land activities not marine although it display your location, distance, etc. **Q: will the 78s do loran to gps conversions** A: No. I don't know of any conversion programs ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Garmin GPSMAP 78s *by S***E on 5 August 2012* I purchased this marine gps unit on July 4th 2012 and used it on a trip from Canary Wharf to Harwich and back on an old coal fired steam tug later on that month.
