Look at the Navman range. Easy to use, good cartography and very clear screens.

Several sizes available and good after sales if you have a problem and can narrow own what it is.

 

Price is not the VERY cheapest, but is very competitive.

I think you can pick up a new 5500 colour plotter at around

Brows ebay for all the electronics. You'll get a good idea of realistic buying prices on the UK sellers. Be very carefull of the sellers posting from China, their feedback is often faked by lots of low cost transactions to give a good impression.

I would go as far as saying "Don't bid on anything from China" .

hi Dan

 

I have just got a new plotter for my boat and have a good Garmin GPS 72 unit for sale. If it is the sort of thing that you are looking for PM me, it has all the instruction books, leads and fixing brackets.

 

regards
