Hi all,
I have recently bought a Garmin GPS72 .
I reckon it's pretty good.But I can't get any tidal information.
I think it only has US tidal stations, but I can't get any info at all;
I was hoping some other 72 users might be able to help.
CHEERS!

Does the 72 take a bluechart card?
if it does not that's probably why you can't get tides!
i have the 182c and after software updates i still couldn't get tidal info until i got the latest bluechart card..
Hope this helps a tiny bit
cheers roota!
