In the version 3.5 map of ireland (or my part of Ireland, anyway) there were lots of lighthouses and buoys (not present in 4.0); so depending on the area of sea - and if fairly close to land - there might be those. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Baracco, Andrew W" <Andrew.Baracco@xxxxxx> To: <gps-talkusers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Monday, August 06, 2007 6:18 PM Subject: [gps-talkusers] Re: GPS on a cruise Where is he going? It may be possible that there are maps for the port cities he might be visiting. As for when the ship is at sea, I think that lon and lat and speed is about all he'll get.

I'm just curious as to what kind of information he would find if he had GPs on a cruise ship. I'm sure there islongitude and latitude since that kind of information is supplied on the inhouse television most cruise ships provide. What else might he see?
