Built rugged for adventure, this wrist-top device is perfect for hikers, campers, climbers, and mariners who want a useful GPS in a lightweight, waterproof, and affordable package.

The Foretrex 201 offers hands-free GPS navigation information, allowing you to concentrate on your outdoor activities. The Foretrex 201 features six dedicated buttons (GoTo, Page, Enter/Mark, Up, Down and Power), making it one of the easiest GPS units on the market to operate. It offers the most essential navigation data, enhanced GPS accuracy, and extensive storage for waypoints, reversible routes, and track information.

You don’t even need to worry about packing extra batteries, because the Foretrex 201 runs on an internal lithium battery for 15 hours. Remanufactured unit includes wrist strap, Expandable strap, A/C desktop charger with PC interface cable, Quick Start Guide, and Owners manual.

This review is from: Remanufactured Garmin Foretrex 201 Wrist-Mounted GPS with Waterproof Exterior (Electronics)

I bought this with the intention of using it for play, and actually used it for work. This little GPS works great and tracks sattelites a lot quicker than the older GPS that I had owned previously. Very user friendly, and I'd definately recommend it to anyone that is getting into a GPS simply for it's simplicity to use.

5.0 out of 5 stars Versatile Wrist GPS, June 21, 2005

I've been using my Fortrex 201 for several months now. I mainly use it for Powered Paragliding. You can program the display from a large list of parameters. When I fly, it shows my ground speed, climb rate, moving time, and altitude. I've also used it while snowboarding to show my speed, maximum speed, and altitude. While windsurfing, it shows my speed and maximum speed (it is waterproof). It is easy to use and inexpensive. It has many additional features such as keeping track of where you have been or helping you get back to your starting point.
