I usually like to have at least two GPS devices when crusing. Sometimes one is unavailable for some reason.
What do you think about using the car GPS as a backup. I have the Garmin Nuvi 205 that has street maps only. I'm pretty sure it will show the little car icon even in near shore waters.
Then I just have to tap the car and it will show the lat and long.
Plot them on my chart and I've got an instant fix.
Would not be my ideal system but it should work yes??
