Compact, full-featured, and highly detailed, the Lowrance iFinder GO2 offers more information and features in one package than any GPS mapping system currently on the market. This 16-channel GPS and WAAS-enabled handheld includes 64MB of built-in memory packed full of mapping detail of the continental United States and Hawaii, including enhanced shoreline detail, coastal nav aids, and wrecks and obstructions, that helps you arrive at your destination quickly and easily.

For easy reading, even when there's limited light, the GO2 features an easy-to-read, 16-level grayscale, 200 x 140 resolution, two-inch diagonal display and amber LED backlit screen. It also offers 40 map zoom ranges (0.02-4000 miles), an internal back-up memory, and 1,000 waypoints, 1,000 event markers, and 100 routes. For added convenience, the GO2 also provides access to up to 100 retraceable plot trails--with up to 10,000 points in any trail--and 42 graphic icons to mark special spots.

This unit seemed to have the best standard lake shoreline maps compared to Garmin and Magellan units I've tried. It is great on batteries and meets nearly all our needs. I'd love to be able to upload waypoints, but none of the inexpensive handhelds allow that. For us older folk, the screen could be a lot bigger, but I guess that's what glasses are for. For our marine construction business, it is perfect. Accuracy of all the units is about the same, and operation is unique to the manufacturer you are looking at. Once you learn the screens, you are good to go.

I bought this for geo-caching. I actually decided to go Lowrance because I have another that I use for the car and liked that one. I hate this iFinder GPS. It is so hard to use and the directions are completely confusing.
I did look into Tom Tom and theirs can used for driving directions as well as for entering the latitudes and longitudes...

This is my second Lowrance GPS. The iFINDER Go2 is a good gps for the money. It picked up the sattelites quickly including WAAS. Excellent battery life. Easy to use but the screen could be bigger. I would buy another GPS from Lowrance.
