This review is from: Humminbird 4063401 AS GR16 16 Channel WAAS GPS Receiver (Electronics)
Previously I had a speed wheel and since it was damaged, I set out to replace it. For not that much more money, I got the GPS unit that takes care of the speed function and adds a lot more. It's not as simple to operate as your automobile GPS, takes a little getting used to. Antenna location was a non issue, receives well anywhere, even under the top.

This review is from: Humminbird 4063401 AS GR16 16 Channel WAAS GPS Receiver (Electronics)
I purchased this as an add on to my 777c fish finder. Once connected and powered up it instantly began to mark my location. We took it on a large lake in Canada and it was extremely helpful to mark our path of travel, set way points where we caught fish, and most importantly, find our way back to the cabin through the maze of channels and islands. I mounted it on a pole which swung to a horizontal position down for travel. It functioned well even in the down position, telling me that I didn't need to mount it up so high for it to work properly. It was easy to install and came with a Y adapter so that I could use my other weather accessories with the fishfinder unit.

This review is from: Humminbird 4063401 AS GR16 16 Channel WAAS GPS Receiver (Electronics)
I had ordered a Humminbird Model 727 fish locator installed on my new pontoon boat. Not that I fish much but I boat in an area that has shallow areas and a fish locator provides a better means of detecting (and trending) shallow spots in order to increase the longevity of my prop and lower unit. While reading the product manual (this was mostly because I couldn't locate any fish) I noted the unit was "GPS ready". Since I was questioning the accuracy of the boat's speedometer I figured adding a GPS unit would give accurate info - plus be more electronics to play with! Once I figured out what the installation guide was telling me it took only a couple minutes to connect and as soon as I turned the fish locator on I starting getting data. I temporarily mounted the receiver sending unit (duct tape!) so I could move its location about in order to insure proper reception. Accuracy is in thousands of a Minute Lat/Long (e.g. Latitude 42 degrees, 21.349 minutes). Using the "bread crumb trail" mode I found I could retrace my course and position my boat to within 10 or 20 feet of my original course. I'm thinking this will be handy this coming Saturday nite when we pass thru shallow areas in order to go to this upriver festival while it's sober and light out but not so much of either on the way back. As far as negatives, about the only thing I can think of is the limitation of using both GPS and Fish Locator at the same time. There are some split screen modes, and some data from each function display regardless of selected viewing mode ... Aw hell, it's probably mostly because I bought the low end fish locator!
