Sight impaired friend and a GPS
Greetings

I have a sight impaired friend - he sees but will never be able to get a car driving license. He sails a West Wight Potter 19 which he calls Blind Ambition. He has a Garmin 76 GPS. He has a laptop on board.

Question:

Has anyone written a program that will take the GPS sentences coming from a Garmin and display them as data BIG on a laptop.

Thanks

Rik
