It accepts pre-programmed or user programmed data cards with MapSource BlueChart for offshore detail or Recreational Lakes with Fishing Hot Spots for detail of inland lakes.In addition, the GPSMAP 276C supports external NMEA sources for water depth, water temperature, and water speed through two serial interfaces.

I was not impressed.

This claims to be "perfect for land or water" in its description, but that is not the case at all. I took this deep-sea diving (I was hunting for monsters), and as soon as I got underwater the unit completely stopped working! I called the customer service, and they said it was "user error". Me...

Outstanding Garmin product...as usual

Garmin has to be the best GPS available. It is the only one I buy, and this is my fifth unit. It is fast to aquire satellite data, and will position you within feet of where you are. I would like to have the option to increase the size of the font, but that is not available to the extent I...

4 Stars for a great GPS unit... 5 Stars if add-ons were standard

I use my 276C exclusively for boating, and it performs admirably. Once you figure out how to navigate the menu screens, you can take advantage of some very powerful options which you would only expect to see on higher end GPS models. Overall, I am very pleased - setup was a breeze, never a...

Garmin 276C

Another excellent product from Garmin. I only use it on the water so I cannot speak to its automotive prowess but I am a very satisfied customer.Great accuracy (to 10 feet without WAAS) in Bermuda and charts are good.Thanks Garmin.

Very best hand held nautical use product!

I've been using my 276C since they came out. I race and cruise sailboats from my home port in Southern California but have used also it many times in Mexico, the East Coast, the UK and The Netherlands. It is a remarkably functional and reliable unit. I've also used it occasionally for land...

Garmin 276C GPS Navigator

This is a superb product! I previously owned a Garmin CarPilot; the operational procedures of the 276C are similar and very convenient and easily understood. The voice feature of the 276C can be turned down (or off), however I found it to be preferable, especially for city driving as one does not...
