I have got the Meridian Marine, no colour though , must be new. How much are asking for it?
I can't complain about mine, It is the only one I have used though.

they want $1000 here but can get from USA for half the price

Why not look at the Garmin GPSMAP76C? Probably the same price but looks technically superior. Me? I'm getting close to ordering the GPSMAP 276C for bigger screen display.

Whiteman - I looked at the 276C at the Johnny Appleseed stand at the camping and caravan show in Brizzie. I too was looking at this model for the future but it actually looked smaller than the 176C standing side by side ?? It still looks nice though and to be able to use it in the car has some benefits. I think with the right software you can have voice navagation on the 276C when using the road maps. Didn't get a price on it as they were too busy.

Cheers

The 176 and 276 have the same screen size (3.8") but the 276 has double the pilxels and 256 colours rather than 16 colours for the 176.
