I'm impressed with Garmins cartography vs. C-map on our other boat, although I haven't had a chance to use the new one much yet.

i have been pretty pleased w/ my 3210.ability to add XM weather when i want (they'll suspend your account for months not needed or used..no reason to pay for what ya can't use).
i mounted mine on an articulating swing arm to display in the companionway. not a huge fan of wet electronics.
it will also interface w/ my autopilot..been reliable enough, although i'm still a firm believer in 'local knowledge' i steer clear of where i'm told...
learning all the menu sequences has always been my biggest issue w/ this or any other chartplotter.
