    Looking for the best Garmin.

    Can anyone suggest the best Garmin that I can put in my boat to check MPH? The cheapest and smallest? There's so many models to chose from and it's hard from the description to tell if it does MPH.





    Thank you,
    Howard

    Howard the Forerunner 201 gets my vote. Small, light and has it's own rechargeable battery. You will pick a good one up for a song on ebay. I purchased 2 of them recently for less than $120

    I forgot... waterproof so they say and I have never had a reason to doubt that.
    Several boats in various stages of destruction
