Garmin GPS 76 Handheld GPS Receiver

Review: An awesome product with all the features even the advanced user would want. I've been using it while deployed in Iraq and it has done well. I have to say I am a little more rough with the GPS than most users and even managed to break the thing. I...

Review: My first receiver so I can't compare, however, it seems to do everything I could have imagined. The main gripe is that maps are extremely expensive, and there are few 3rd party providers. The map format is CLOSED, so you cannot make your own maps...

Review: I get a single vertical line down an otherwise blank screen after the GPS successfully acquires satellites. I did indentify a contributing factor. My GPSMAP 76 is mounted in my boat with a factory mount and 12-volt wiring harness. I first hooked it...

The Bottom Line: Simply the best GPS out there no other comes close.

Review: It's a powerful tool for sailboat racing, as well as safety (I've used it twice to return safely in the fog). Being able to load GPS points into it is great, as well as reading out the tracks (series of time/lat/long points where you were).
