The FURUNO GP32 is the ideal large display
unit for basic navigation. No charts to clutter the simple display
of direction, and distance to go. A simple map page, clearly
indicates the path of your recent navigation, and records it
for back-tracking or later use. The GP32
includes
the BNC connection
for the supplied external antenna. The GP-37 looks the same,
with the same functions, but has a coastal beacon receiver built-in,
to give accuracies of around 3 metres.
GP-32 with ext antenna $550 |
GP-37 DGPS (3 metres) with ext antenna $1090 |
