You don't need to have a Chartplotting
GPS... any
GPS can give you your Long/Lat position, and then you can plot it on a chart.
Non-chart plotting
GPS units are really inexpensive nowadays. Just make sure you get one with big digits....
A
Garmin GPS 72 would do the job nicely...
Less than $100 on
Amazon.com

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
