Waterproof Handheld GPS

Want a portable GPS unit that can handle a little rain or a day of fishing? The Lowrance iFinder H20 C is waterproof to IPX7 standards, meaning it can withstand up to 30 minutes of immersion in 1 meter of water. It sports a 16 channel GPS/WAAS receiver and a 2.83 inch diagonal screen.

For the price, I like the background mapping feature on this waterproof GPS system which includes all of the continental US and Hawaii. And, there’s an SD card slot for mapping and recording. There are optional programs available for the unit, including FreedomMaps, Fishing Hot Spots, and Lake Master.

The Lowrance H20 C operates for up to 14 hours on 2 AA batteries, and it includes a 12V power adapter.
