P1000 GPS - school me..

[txsurfer]

As a fellow boat guy and new 1000-3, 700-4 owner, I have been looking at GPS units as well. Still debating if I need a terrain map, I just don't want to get lost and I want to be able to find my way back to camp. I am using my Garmin GPSmap 76CSx, a hand held marine unit.
I simply start a track, mark some way points along the way and save the track. I do this each time I go out on 16K acres. When I feel I'm lost, I just reload one of the tracks, and follow it back home.

I see you're from FL - Have you ridden Ocala? We just did and really enjoyed it.

No, I don't go up there. I belong to a hunting camp in Central Florida. What is there to do there?

I've been using maplets on iPhone. Just download maps for use while out on the trails. Seemed to work pretty good at windrock.

IMO the trail network is pretty fun with lots of loamy sand
