Worth It? A Survival Test for an Adventure Camera
I was excited when Pentax, a proven waterproof adventure camera maker, launched its first satellite-connected camera this year, the Optio WG-1 GPS camera.
Where can I get a simple GPS portable unit that is waterproof and shock resistant? Crusing sailboat?
Numerical values only to keep down cost.
You should check West Marine.
most of the models mentioned so far are not waterproof. They are Water RESISTANT.
Very few manufacturers will commit to saying thier unit is waterproof.
The only waterproof ones I know of have a separate antenna which is the waterproof part. The base unit is only water resistant.
There really is no "Cheap, simple, portable" GPS unit. thats pretty much over-constraining your selection.
There are however, Waterproof Cases for your GPS unit. There are at least 5 I know of at REI that will hold any of the less expensive Garmin units.
There is a waterproof case availalbe for the new Triton2000, but that may be too expensive (300-400$)
Now about your needs for Cruising: a Cheap GPS unit will only have a b/w screen and very simple mapping capabilities. If you plan to upload topo or marine charts you will need a better unit (Triton 300).
If all you want to do is plot out your position on a paper chart, go with the cheap unit with a waterproof case.
