About this product

Product Information

Get your bearings right wherever you are with the handheld Garmin GPSMAP 76S. The Garmin GPS 76S is a basic and functional handheld GPS unit. If you’re an intrepid traveler in need of basic direction for your latest outdoor or marine adventure, the Garmin GPSMAP may be a good choice. The GPSMAP 76S is a unit designed to provide precise GPS positioning using correction data obtained from the Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS). This unit features a built-in quad helix antenna for superior reception and can provide position map accuracy to less than three meters when receiving WAAS corrections. Departing in some ways from Garmin’s earlier version of GPS units, this unit is roughly double the size of the 2.8-inch display. The device’s buttons are positioned above the screen rather than below (as in earlier models). This means you use the buttons from the side rather than the bottom. Otherwise, the Garmin GPSMAP 76S retains the basic button layout of Garmin’s other buttoned handheld GPS units: a seven-button layout with a four-way navigational pad. Some of these buttons are context sensitive, but regular users of Garmin GPS units will already be accustomed to this. The Garmin GPSMAP 76S adds an Americas, European, or Pacific basemap and 8 megabytes (MB) of map storage space to the other features of earlier models of the 76-series navigators. In addition to a pre-loaded basemap of cities, the Garmin GPS 76 includes maps for coastlines, lakes, rivers, interstates and interstate exit information, and a database of nautical navaids. The unit has eight megabytes of internal user memory for storing optional MapSource detailed maps, including marine cartography. If you’re into boating, hunting, or fishing, you can use the GPSMAP 76’s built-in celestial data, which includes tide information, sunrise and sunset times, and a hunting and fishing calendar. An extra-large display, measuring 1.6 by 2.2 inches, gives users a clear view of information, while a waterproof case means that the GPSMAP 76S Handheld will keep working well, even if it’s been submerged in water. This unit also floats in case of accidental dropping in water. The GPSMAP 76 boasts a larger display than the popular eTrex series and can be used with an external antenna for greater convenience in awkward viewing situations as well as for improved reception in poor signal locations. A large numbers option allows for easy viewing at a distance, and the backlit display and keypad simplifies use in low light situations. The GPSMAP 76 has 10,000 track points in its active track log. It can also store 10 reduced tracklogs that can have up to 250 data points. These 250 saved trackpoints can be converted to up to 50 TrackBack points. The trip computer on the GPSMAP 76 is able to display up to nine data fields at a time, including elevation, accuracy, bearing, depth, distance to destination, time to next, trip odometer, waypoints, and various other pieces of information about your routes that are explained in detail in the user manual. The unit itself weighs 7.7 oz with 2 AA batteries (not included) and has a battery life of 16 hours. Various accessories are also available (for USA and other versions) separately as well as Garmin’s own suite of software.

  • Great screen with fine lines indicating route

    Sorry, it's not better than expected. It's what I expected. This is the third Garmin GPS Map76S that I have purchased, and so I knew what I wanted. I was pleased to find that it appears to have been looked after. They are no longer available as a new unit.

  • Nice unit!

    Just glad to get one of these older Garmin units that are good shape and functional. I think these are superior to the 78. Thank you!

  • Takes the worry out of navigating in fog.

    Get caught in fog just once and you'll wish you had one of these things on board. Very easy to set weigh points and routes. It's way point and route capabilities will get you to your destination with only a 6 ft margin of error. Excellent tide data as well.

  • Rugged GPS

    This is one of the few GPS that runs on AA batteries if all fails. Its rugged and never failed me on 12000 sailing miles. However initializing is slow if not used for some time.
