Garmin 73 GPS

The Garmin 73 gps can be used on land and also at sea, since it is waterproof according to the IPX7 standard and also floats.

A backlight system has been incorporated that includes the screen and the keypad.

It offers important nautical data such as estimated arrival time, among others, sunrise and sunset, hunting and fishing calendar and more variables.

It incorporates the SailAssist system which is an invaluable aid to navigation thanks to the heading line and tack aid. The latter tells you when to turn depending on whether the boat is passing or stopping, setting an optimal turning angle. It also includes a virtual starting line and a countdown timer to guarantee arrival at the starting line at the right time.

Like the Model 72, the GPS 73 is NMEA 0183 compliant, making transferring data to or from your device very easy, just by connecting it to your computer via USB.

The GPS 73 has a very intuitive user interface for easy use. It also has a high contrast display that makes it easy to read in all light conditions.

Its highly sensitive GPS receiver gets GPS signals quickly and tracks your location, even in difficult locations.

The box contains the device, a carrying strap and a quick start guide.
