The GPSMAP 168
Sounder™ packs a boatload of features in a sleek unit that won't
eat up precious onboard space.
The GPSMAP 168
Sounder is a combination GPS receiver and chartplotter which
includes a depth-finder. The unit also contains an impressive list
of features including a powerful 12 parallel channel GPS receiver
and tide prediction tables. Featuring a built-in worldwide basemap
with U.S. highways, interstates, rivers, and lakes, the GPSMAP 168
Sounder also can download up to 2.5 MB of extra map data from
GARMIN's MapSource™ line of CD-ROMs,
including Fishing Hot Spots.
Physically,
the unit resembles GARMIN's popular
Fishfinder 240. It measures about five by six inches in size
and boasts a four-level gray FSTN LCD display with 240 x 240
pixels. Even in the dark the unit is easy to read, thanks to a
backlit display.
Additionally, the GPSMAP 168 Sounder has a 150-watt depth-finder
to make catching fish a whole lot easier. The unit features
GARMIN's exclusive See-Thru™ technology which will help separate
fish returns from thermoclines and structure. What's more, a
graphic whiteline on the GPSMAP 168 Sounder provides a clear image
of both bottom hardness and structure. |
