Would Bizer recommend an affordable GPS that has great detail of Lake Winnipesaukee?
• We do not have in-depth knowledge of GPS receivers. We only purchase one when we need a feature that we don’t already have. • We haven’t bought a GPS in a while. We’re sure things have change substantially. • What’s affordable to one person may be prohibitive to another. What’s your budget? • Great detail is subjective. The best lake detail at this time is C-Map chips. Bizer’s data for Garmin GPS is second best. Others go down from there, but they may be adequate for your needs. For example, Garmin’s Roads & Recreation database, when added to Bizer’s list of waypoints around the lake, may be adequate for your needs. • Do you want a portable or fixed mount? A portable usually has a small screen. A fixed mount device can’t be moved to your car. • As of this writing (March 2008) we know of no portable GPS can use the C-Map chip. • Some people demand a color screen. Bizer prefers black and white because it’s less expensive, draws less power, and is usually easier to see in sunlight. GPS
