Hey all , I was wondering what GPS or Computer you use and would like to see how you have it mounted. I have a Horizon 180 and want to install one. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks

Sorry no pics, but in my old 248 I had a Northstar Gps. Look for one with an internal antenna to save time mounting an external one

Not what you're asking for, but works great for me on inland lakes. eTrex Vista C in a Ram mount.

I use my Garmin Nuvi. Someone (I think Tanker Toad) has a thread about getting the inland lakes to display properly and such, the way I use it. Nice to have the big, bright touch screen especially at night.

I have a Garmin 740. I mounted it just to the right of the compass on the top of the helm.

I went from a mounted hand held Garmin GPS Map 76 to a Garmin GPS 536s. A mounted hand held is great if you can read the small screen. See my comments under the GPS section.
