Navigate anywhere with ease
Perfect for boaters and water sports enthusiasts who want to run
with the best, the rugged Garmin GPSMAP 78SC Handheld
Colour GPS features a 3-axis compass, barometric
altimeter, crisp colour mapping, high-sensitivity receiver, new
moulded rubber side grips, plus a microSD card slot for loading
additional maps. And it floats! The GPSMAP 78SC comes complete with
a chart card so you’re good to go!
Explore
The GPSMAP 78s comes with built-in worldwide basemap, so you can
navigate anywhere with ease. And like the rest of the 78-series,
78s is IPX7 waterproof and even floats in water.
Get Your Bearings
The GPSMAP 78s has a built-in 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic
compass, which shows your heading even when you’re standing still
without holding it level. Its barometric altimeter tracks changes
in pressure to pinpoint your precise altitude, and you can even use
it to plot barometric pressure over time, which can help you keep
an eye on changing weather conditions.
Share Wirelessly
With the GPSMAP 78s you can share your waypoints, tracks, routes
and geocaches wirelessly other compatible device users. Now you can
send the location of your favourite fishing spot to a friend to
find. Sharing data is easy. Just press “send” to transfer your
information to similar units.
