He had three states loaded in which he could pull up any lake which had the lake contours, river channels, boats ramps, channel markers anything important for fishing that you might need. On his finder it showed where we was on the lake map within 9 feet, mine showed within 74 feet. Although it is usually within 15 feet or so. I just know that whenever I have the wants bad enough I am going to have one with gps built in.
That might be the differance of WAAS enabled units. Was the built in unit WAAS capable?
Give a man a fish, feed him for a day.
Teach a man to fish, he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day.
