Garmin GPSMAP 79sc

When your call comes from the deepest depths of the oceans, all your need is the Garmin GPSMAP 79sc, an expert marine handheld preloaded with BlueChart G3 coastal charts to cast off confidently. 

A rugged, handheld GPS that is built for life on boat, Garmin's GPSMAP 79sc is IPX7 rated water-resistant with high-resolution color display that floats. Fitted with a scratch-resistant, fogproof glass, it belongs to the sea, like you!

A reliable 19hour battery life in GPS mode with user-replaceable AA batteries (not included) allows you to venture out over the vast expanse of water for extended hours seeking the thrill.

GPSMAP79sc can remember up to 10,000 waypoints and 250 routes way beyond what you can possibly recollect. It is always better to have a handy guide supported by GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, QZSS and SBAS satellite constellations to accurately track and position you around the world.

Garmin gets to work with a 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass to show where you are headed even while the boat stands still. Designed for the love of sea navigation, Garmin GPSMAP 79sc comes preloaded with BlueChart g3 coastal charts with a leading-edge coverage of US and the Great Lakes, in clarity and detail with integrated Garmin and Navionics data.
