Does anyone have any experiences with the Garmin GPS units that have a built in antennae? I think its a #162 but not sure. Its a stand alone unit for in a boat. Do they work well, or are they like the lowrance built in units? I haven't heard too much good about them. the unit is a 2001 model, but never used. They are asking $175. Would you go for it?

That seems like a pretty good deal to me. The reviews on the 162 are all good. I'd go for it, especially if its new and never been used.

I have the etrex and love it... But I would get one that suits your needs for what you want to do with it..
