Do You Need a Portable GPS on Your Boat? So you just invested in a Chart Plotter/GPS combo which is handsomely embedded in your boat's dash while your best friend and revered mariner buddy is telling you all about his brand new handheld GPS that he just can't live without. It seems like just about every piece of marine electronics these days comes fitted, equipped or ready wired for integrated GPS. So just how many GPS devices do you need on board your boat and is there really a need for a separate handheld device?Well the short answer is mariners lived without electronic GPS devices for eons before they became a can't-live-without-it necessity, but there are a few fine points to consider in favor of having a handheld GPS.If you don't already have a marine GPS on board your boat, a handheld is a versatile and relatively cheap way to keep track of where you are, where you've been and where you're going.

Sailing Equipment: The Latest and Greatest No matter what type of boat you own, having the right sailing equipment will make your time on the water more comfortable, enjoyable, and special. Sailing equipment is a very important part of your sailing adventure, and having the proper equipment is vital.One thing to remember about your sailing equipment is that, similar to purchasing a sailboat or a dinghy, you must set yourself a budget. Sailing equipment can range in price from reasonable to very expensive. You need to set a budget and stick to it. As with anything, you get what you pay for, so you will want to consider your budget not only with your initial purchases but also take into account what the cost of replacement may be. For example, you may decide initially to buy a less expensive radio, but cutting costs on an important piece of equipment will run into further expense when it requires repair or replacement. So while I urge you to stick to your budget, let me also encourage you to look at the cost of equipment with a global perspective instead of simply what you will need at this moment.Develop a clear assessment of your needs when determining what type of...more
