Comments about Garmin GPSMAP 3206, 6.4-inch diagonal display:

I have one as a backup unit to my Garmin 3210 and its a great thing to have. They both work the same way and I can have them do two diferrent jobs on the same trip. Both with separate antennas and sounders and power sources just in case of failure of one or the other. A Must for long deep bahamas trips. The coverage and detail of the Garmin Chip is better that all the other competitors in the Bahamas area, especially deep down the far islands.
