When you are on a trip like that set Poys of your own and you can make a rout if you like or use them next time. I like to set them so I can tell when the driver is turned around. Might not ever happen but it would be nice if you need the coastguard.

Well 3 years ago when in Hawaii I used my gps ona boat which we
took so the
sighties in our group could see the marine life. While they were
doing that
I played with the GPS and mainly only got latitude and longitude
as we were
pretty far from land so I couldn't pick up any POI(s). Mary Ellen Earls ----- Original Message ----- From: "Koji Matsuda (Yahoo)" <kojim33jp@xxxxxxxxxxx To: <gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Wednesday, May 16, 2007 3:02 AM Subject: [gps-talkusers] GPS on the boat
Did any of you try using Sendero GPS to navigate a rowing boat?
I heard
something about sailing in the ocean, but that sounds too scary
for me at
this time. But if I set a POI at the shore of a lake, then I
can row my
boat anywhere on the lake and come back to that shore. That
would be
awsome. There are a lot of lakes in my area where you can rent
a boat. I
just wonder if anyone has tried something like that. Just hope
that
nothing will happen to the GPS system while you are out there.
