I have never had a GPS and just started looking at them. All the ones I find are just for driving with maps. I wanted something I could use on the boat also.

I've had two marine Garmins (still have a GPSMap 550S), one automotive and one aviation GPS over the past ten years - never had a moment's problem with any of them. Thoroughly recommend their products.

Ditto; you could choose any brand you want as long as it's a Garmin!

Garmin 378 has inland charts, Garmin 478 has coastal charts. I have the 478 which I use in my car and boat. They both come with street maps as well. The screen is kind of small but the unit works very well. I would recomend it.

I use a Garmin 60cx hand-held unit. It works excellent in the boat and in the car. Has more features on it than I would ever need.
